The Club has 2 drying moorings suitable for boats up to 22ft available for rental. They are situated a short distance from the end of the Club pontoon. They will dry out on a big spring tide.
The cost is £440 for this season.

The Helford River Sailing Club will be running RYA Powerboat Level 2 Courses during the season. Could anyone who is interested in doing the course please let Angie Watson know so the parties involved have an idea of numbers?
Please contact Angie Watson on [email protected]
Do any members have a RIB they wish to sell?
One of our members is on the look out for one that will fit a finger berth, so a maximum length of 5m.
If you do, please get in touch with Tracey in the office on 01326 231006

As is usual at this time of year the river gets to look a completely different place, where in the summer there is hardly a mooring not used, to now its just a few of the working fishing boats on their moorings. The summer has been favourable to sailing this year with few if any cancellations in any races, there were a few yacht races when we did wonder if we would ever get back to the mooring, thank goodness for the engine, and full credit to those who always sail to their moorings.
Dinghy racing has been well attended on most outings with two very good regattas run by Captain Dinghies and his team; the training taking place over the last few weeks of the season has been a great success thanks to Keith Wilkin and Linda, some rising stars in laser racing are benefiting gaining confidence and skills.
My own last sail of the season was a leisurely cruise up to Gull Rock and back with Andrew on Morgawr in mid October, a stunning day with a good steady WNW wind.
The junior sailing finished at the end of the summer holidays and was well attended, thanks must go to our great team of qualified instructors who turn up each week and give their time to teach the next generation of HRSC sailors.
I look forward to seeing many of you in the club at our events throughout the winter months.
CHRIS HOSKEN – REAR COMMODORE SAILING
Dear Members,
HRSC would like to show our support for the Cadgwith Fishing Cove Trust and the community in their endeavour to purchase the iconic buildings within the cove.
‘This Fishing Life’ shown on BBC TV recently gave a great insight into the work of this community of fishermen and their families.
Now the weather is more autumnal and the club less busy, the inside of the clubhouse is now open for drinking and eating, including our classic Sunday roasts (which will be served on plates with proper cutlery!)
This has meant we have had to follow the health and safety regulations laid down by the Government.
The procedures now are:
Enter the club house by the balcony door wearing masks and sanitise your hands.The door to the front of the club will be locked to come through into the club but is available to exit in case of emergency. This is because of track and trace restrictions.Dress warmly as all the other doors and windows will need to be open to help with ventilation and control of the spread of the coronavirus.Ollie/ Becky or another member of staff will greet you and show you to a table, which is limited to 6 people.They will need to take your name and contact number for track and trace or you can use your NHS App and scan our QR code.They will take your order for drinks/food and serve them to you at the table.To use the toilet facilities, you need to follow the one-way system and wear your mask.Unfortunately, people need to stay at their tables and not mingle inside the clubhouse.When we serve food, we are encouraging members to book their table prior to coming in to eat as we only have limited tables.To book a table please either email [email protected] or call 01326 231460.
Thank you to all members for being respectful of others and following the Government rules
