Membership

We welcome new membership applications and look forward to you joining us!

Take a look at our brochure and frequently asked questions. The membership application form and declaration form, together with fees information can be opened/downloaded below.

We operate a preferred boat class policy 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.

If you wish to join Papercourt Sailing Club please complete the Membership Application Form . You will then be invited for a chat over a cup of tea with a member of the Main Committee, who will show you around and answer any questions you may have. Once your application has been approved you will be asked for payment in full and to sign the Member Declaration Form.

It’s as simple as that.
