New Members Welcome
BCYC are actively seeking new members, beginner sailors to experienced racers, SUP enthusiasts and paddlers, adults and families. Under 26 – it is scary how cheap it is to join – no excuses.
We offer training courses – including free training to use the club safety boats – and a buddy system – where new members team up with an existing member, share their first duty day and have a point of contact for any questions.

Racing at BCYC
Bristol Corinthian is known for its great fleet racing on our expansive 265 acres of water.
Whether you are an experienced racer looking for a new club, or a lapsed sailor looking to get back into a boat, BCYC offers racing all year round on Sundays and Wednesday evenings from April to September.
We welcome visitors to come and have a go. You can visit BCYC three times to meet our members, join in the racing and try the facilities yourself. All we ask is that you ensure your boat is washed down at the club hose, and you pay a Short Term Membership fee. Just introduce yourself to the Officer of the Day and enjoy our facilities.
