Recent Highlights

Gunfleet Sailing Club held its 62nd Annual General Meeting last Sunday 1 December 2024 and Commodore Richard Walker welcomed those members present and reflected on a very successful year which included some sixty events on the water, and house-full signs for many of the social functions.  

Gunfleet Sailing Club members filled the Clubhouse last Saturday 19 October 2024 to celebrate the end of the 2024 sailing season, with a Chinese meal and the presentation of trophies.  Commodore Richard Walker also celebrated thirty years of being at the helm of the Gunfleet, looking back to the start of the Club in 1962.

Gunfleet Sailing Club’s 2024 Cadet Splash took part over the three days of 27 – 29 August and was heralded a great success by all those taking part – both the participants and the helpers.  The weather was wall to wall sunshine, with a sailors’ wind throughout, although occasionally somewhat trying.  Two teams were chosen – The Frankie’s Stein, and the Five Part Turk’s Head; both names just rolling off the tongue!!

Gunfleet Sailing Club held its annual Regatta, sponsored by Orsted Energy and Odiin Recruitment, over the weekend of 20 & 21 July with twenty-eight boats taking part in an offshore wind and a mixture of sunshine and clouds.
