The club launch is available to visitors and their dinghies can be berthed whilst they are using the Club. The Club launch can be called on Ch. M1 or ch.37, call sign "club launch"

The launch runs (Mon to Fri) 1015 to 1300 and 1400 to 1845. On Saturdays and Sundays from 0915 to 1945 (1645 in April and October). The RCYC operates an honesty box system for non-members. The charge is £2 per round trip (there and back).

Visitors Moorings.

The Club does not have any moorings available for local or visiting yachts. Berthing is available by pre-booking with the local marinas and Yacht Haven.
