Social Sailing

BCYC evolved from as a dinghy racing club. Today's members enjoy both social sailing and cruising. The introduction of paddlesports including canoes, kayaks and stand up paddleboards means many members now enjoy all forms of watersports at the reservoir. The club has a growing group of enthusiastic social sailors who meet regularly go to cruising and sailing in company both at Cheddar Reservoir and at a variety of different locations.

Social sailors are welcome on the water at any time - there's plenty of room for everyone! We offer social sailing and informal coaching from experienced club members every Saturday from May to September. We meet at 12:30 in the club for a chat and cup of tea.
