West Pier Sailing Club

Formally established in 2015, our ethos is to spread the passion, beauty and wonder we have found in water sports.

The Irish National Sailing Club was formed in January 2015 by course graduates and staff of the Irish National Sailing & Powerboat School. The club's ethos is centered around "pay small, play big, enjoy hugely". Through a partnership with the Irish National Sailing and Powerboat School (INSS) club members have access to the INSS Fleet, Coaches and Facilities. Club membership fees are set a very mo

dest level, with membership allowing charter of the INSS Fleet. The INSS provides safety boats, coaches and a welcoming clubhouse for members.

Unfortunately, due to another Gale Warning today, we’ve had to cancel sailing once again this weekend.

That said, don’t give up on winter sailing just yet! When the conditions are good, they’re really good!!
All it takes is wrapping up warm and heading out for a proper blast when the weather allows
Fingers crossed for calmer days ahead 🤞🌤️

Yesterday evening, the West Pier Sailing Club hosted our annual Christmas Party and AGM. It was a wonderful night where members gathered to raise a glass to an exceptional year -one that saw our successful rebrand from the Irish National Sailing Club to the West Pier Sailing Club. Plenty of laughs were shared, and the atmosphere reflected the strong community spirit that defines our club.

We are delighted to announce the appointment of our new Commodore, Robin Jones, and we extend our sincere thanks to our outgoing Commodore, James Linton, for his tremendous service and dedication over the past few years.

Award Winners
A huge congratulations to this year’s award recipients:

Heather Blay – Most Improved Dinghy Sailor

Alan Clark – Most Improved Keelboat Sailor

Saint John Harold – Arthur Rumball Award, recognising his outstanding dedication, commitment, and service to the club

We are truly looking forward to the year ahead under the guidance and leadership of Robin Jones.

Here’s to fair winds and another remarkable year at West Pier Sailing Club!
