Beaulieu Rally open for booking
22nd to 24th May
Dave Rickard is organising this year’s rally to Beaulieu, located in the heart of the New Forest.
As always, the event is likely to be oversubscribed so early booking is highly recommended. Twenty berths have been booked with the harbour office, and, as in previous years, this is highly unlikely to be extended. Five members have already pre-empted this notice and asked to be placed on the list so move fast to secure your place!
Sailability Day in May
29th May 2026
Helen and Alex are organising this year's Sailability Days, and are now looking for volunteer skippers to host for a day sail with Sailability Members.
Its one of the most rewarding days you'll have on the water. We kick off with coffee in the clubhouse, followed by a sail either in the harbour or out into the bay. We return around 14.00 / 14.30.

French and West Country Summer Cruises
Through June and July
This year we are following on from last year’s success of more relaxed cruises to France and The West Country.
We are setting up two WhatsApp Groups where everyone can keep in touch to discuss when and where they are planning to go. This enables sailors to meet up for drinks/meals and get the heads up on berthing availability, best restaurants and anchoring spots.
Join MoorMesh and secure your boat
We’re delighted to announce that we’re going live with MoorMesh for Poole Harbour in BETA mode.
We’ve now opened the website for early adopters to register accounts and begin setting up their cameras ready to join the MoorMesh network.
The Poole Harbour network itself is scheduled to go live on or around 1st April, but in the meantime you can get ahead by purchasing, installing, and configuring your cameras so you’re ready from day one when we switch things on.
