We have a fantastic range of member boats from Picos to fast-cats and cruisers. During the Season we run races most weekends, weather permitting! The club hosts many national events and also training for young and old. All sailors are welcome even if you just fancy coming down for a chat and a beer!

Warning

Shipping Movements - March 2010

The attention of all mooring holders and boaters in the Torridge Estuary is brought to the notice of future shipping movements received from Bideford Harbourmaster on the Cruiser page.

Email

The preferred means of communication with Members is via email.  A recent "snail-mail" shot cost the Club over £90.  If you are not already receiving emails from the Club please send an email to info@ndyc.org with your current contact details.

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that what you entered on the Membership Renewal Form is correct, it is a manual process and it is not always possible to decipher handwriting accurately.  The difference between a handwritten . - & _ is not easy to discern for the human eye. The contacts database has been weeded for bouncing email addresses.  

Please help us to save the Club money by enabling us to communicate with you more effectively.
