Wilsonian Sailing Club

Wilsonian Sailing Club Open nearly every weekend of the year. Memberships start from as little as £65pa Membership is open to all and the club is an RYA accredited training centre.

Located on the River Medway in Kent, we are a dinghy club run by its members and offers a range of activities including racing, cruising, training and social events. Wilsonian Sailing Club is a volunteer based dinghy sailing club based on the shore of the Medway Estuary near Hoo.

The Wednesday Series is unfortunately over and what a fantastic series it was! 13 races sailed (1 abandoned), with the largest race having 21 boats. 63 different entries, and 24 boat classes sailed.

It is definitely the most popular race series at the club by a large margin and is probably needed by most to split the week down the middle. Definitely it was a good call to extend the series from 10 races (last year) to 14.

Congratulations to the winners and to everyone that made it work - it was a series with self managed duties after all and we made it work beautifully.

Well done to our 2 juniors taking 1st and 2nd place and Dave Fry taking 3rd.

Hi all!

With 48 boats already entered, 19 different classes on the water, 19 visiting sailors, one ex-Commodore (from 30 years ago) in his 2000, the 30+ fantastic volunteers behind the scenes that have already consumed enough tea and coffee to float a small fleet getting the club ready, there's still just under 5 hours left to get your entry in for the Medway Regatta!

This is the big one – the club's premier event of the year and always a brilliant weekend of racing, laughs, friendly rivalry, and plenty of socialising ashore.

Not sailing? You're still very much part of the fun! Drop an email to [email protected] and get yourself booked in for some cracking food and live music from Swinging The Lead.

Whether you're racing, helping, eating, drinking, cheering, or just enjoying the atmosphere, it'd be great to see as many club members as possible involved.

Get your entry in before time runs out!

Whilst the start of the main season began last Sunday with a very windy Ice Breaker, the conditions are never quite the same from year to year. This year’s race took competitors out to Channel Buoy 23 and back, weaving through various stretches of the river between there and the club.

Here’s a report from our very own Roy Winnett (Ex-Commodore), written in March 1998:

The first club event of the main season kicked off with the Ice Breaker. With a south-westerly Force 4 wind gusting up t...

The first club event of the main season kicked off with the Ice Breaker. With a south-westerly Force 4 wind gusting up to Force 7, conditions made for some challenging yet enjoyable sailing. The fleet headed down to Channel Buoy 23, carefully navigating around other buoys along the course before making the return journey.
