We welcome applications from men and women with a genuine interest in sailing and motor boating. If you are interested in becoming a member of the Royal Dorset Yacht Club please come in to the club and to discuss membership and to see what great benefits the club can give you.
The Club has an active cruising calendar and if you enjoy sailing or power boating in company then we have a place for you. We are also an accredited RYA Training Centre and run a number of courses for members.
If you enjoy a competitive edge to your water sports then why not join in a Club regatta or race where there’s even a special "Gentlemens'" non-spinnaker class for the cruising boats to try some more relaxed racing.
Weymouth and Portland is already renowned for its yacht racing facilities and this has been recognized by its selection as the venue for the sailing events of the 2012 Olympics and Paralympics.
The Club has an active social calendar, with both informal Club Nights and more formal events throughout the year.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Royal Dorset.
