Tudor Sailing Club is a family orientated, friendly sailing club situated in Portsmouth, Hampshire. We cater for the needs of dinghy and cruiser (yacht) sailors, as well as small fishing boats and kayaks.

We aim to offer a varied events program to encourage our members to enjoy the sport of sailing whatever their interests. Whether you are keen on competitive racing, or prefer a gentle cruise, there will be something in our program that will appeal. Tudor Sailing Club provides an excellent base for sailing activities, with a slipway that extends down to low water springs, makes launching possible at all states of tide.

Tudor SC has ample storage facilities for boats, with 150 dinghy spaces and 90 moorings for cruisers. 'Summer only' dinghy spaces can be guaranteed to all new members. We have moorings available for the 2016 season, and offer winter lay up to mooring holders at very reasonable rates.

Interested in joining?

Tudor SC offers reduced rates and no joining fees for members 25 and under. A typical family membership with all year storage for a Wayfarer dinghy costs around £230.
