Become a Papercourt Sailing Club Member

Papercourt Sailing Club is in the heart of Surrey with a 45 acre lake set in woodland which is an area of Special Scientific Interest.  It is easily accessed from both the M25 and A3 at Ripley.  It has a large modern clubhouse, large car park and boasts some 1,100 members. 

Although it is primarily a racing club there are also opportunities for cruising most weekends (subject to PRO) and Wednesday evenings in the summer.  It is an RYA recognised training centre (training for members only), Volvo RYA Champion Club and has a very strong youth section, claiming the largest Optimist fleet in the country.  We operate Ladies Sailing Days/Evenings and have a vibrant Sailability section.

We are currently accepting membership applications and there are some vacant berths available for members’ dinghies but this cannot be guaranteed in the future. 

We operate a preferred class policy, see below, but will accept other dinghies with PYN between 1018 to 1646 subject to agreement by the Committee.  Boat fees are payable for all boats sailed at the club, whether or not they have an allocated space in the dinghy park.

New members are required to pay an entrance fee on joining.  Click here to see application and membership fees for 2012.
