Welcome to the
Royal Cornwall Yacht Club
The Royal Cornwall Yacht Club welcomes sailors of all ages and abilities to our club.
Located within a Grade II listed clubhouse on a 17th century private quayside, the club overlooks spectacular views of Falmouth Harbour, Flushing, Carrick Roads and beyond. RCYC was formed in 1871, and continues to hold close its traditional values whilst extending a warm welcome to new members.
As a club, we enjoy first class sailing. We host regular club racing as well as world-renowned sailing events. Whilst there is a focus on yacht sailing, we are enthusiastic supporters of dinghy sailing and motor boating interests.
Year round the club runs frequent social events including lectures, tuition and charity fundraising events. Our dining and bar facilities are open all year.
Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Dear Members
In accordance with the Government restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic the Clubhouse is closed for the foreseeable future, and until the Government advises us of the end of the current restrictions.
The health, safety and well-being of our Members and staff remains our utmost priority.
The Club launch service is due to resume from Tuesday 26 May; consultation is still taking place regarding the commencement of our sailing calendar and we will continue to update Members via our newsletter. You are probably aware that the latest Government guidelines have been relaxed to allow recreational sailing and the use of motorised craft. Those of you who wish to access the water from the slipway may do so but please be aware that the Clubhouse is closed. You can also access the dinghy yard to use your tender.
We look forward to resuming normal services and sailing activities as soon as it is recommended to do so and welcoming you all back to our Club.
In the meantime, please stay safe.
Nick Woodley (Acting Commodore) and Flag Officers
