Founded in 1948 and located on the south bank of the idylic Helford River
Some of the best sailing waters in England with shore facilities and pontoons.
Extensive clubhouse, with social calendar throughout the year. Bar and restaurant for members and all visiting yachts.
Yacht racing on Wednesday evenings and most weekends.
Dinghy racing on Thursday evenings and some weekends.
Adult training on Tuesday evenings and Junior sailing on Friday evenings.
The Club always extends a special welcome to families and children. We have a strong junior sailing side and one of the founding objectives of the Club was “to encourage generally messing about in boats in a seamanlike manner”
With this in mind, we ask parents to be aware of the inherent dangers of being near water, cliffs and a busy car park. What may be obvious to an adult could present an immediate danger to a child. We ask parents to be responsible for their children, to take warning signs seriously and ensure that lifejackets are worn as appropriate.
That said, the river gives us all, both young and old, a tremendous playground right on our doorstep.
. . . Enjoy it to the full.

HRSC and Falmouth Week
The Commodore and Committee would like to say a huge thank you to all those involved in the very successful Regatta Day on Sunday 8th August when the Club hosted the first day’s sailing of Falmouth Week. The teas were, as ever, a great success so thanks to all the helpers and contributors and to everyone who gave up their time, either on the water or ashore. Without your help, it would not be possible to hold such an event and we hope you all enjoyed it as much as the visitors to the Club obviously did.
Thanks also to Toddy and all the Helford safety boats involved with Falmouth week.
