Sailing for Everyone
Middle Nene Sailing Club is a very friendly, enthusiastic sailing club, sited in Northamptonshire, offering good sailing, competitive class racing, training courses, and a varied social calendar for all ages. The club is entirely run by its members.
We allow sailing at any time from March to December, with racing organised on Sundays, Saturdays, and Thursday evenings. Social sailing is available on Tuesday evenings throughout the spring and summer season.
Class and Handicap racing include dinghies such as Solo, RS200, RS Aero, GP14, Enterprise, Laser, RS Tera, National 12, Topper, Mirror and Optimist as well as two keelboat classes - Flying 15 and Illusion. Sailboards and SUP are also welcome outside club racing. Please check with the Membership Secretary (LINK) which other classes will be accepted into the Menagerie Fleet.
Excellent facilities are provided, and include a licensed bar, professional catering, showers, changing rooms, camping on site, together with frequent and varied social events.
Whether you want to learn to sail, enjoy some friendly racing, or simply spend time on the water with family and friends, you'll find everything you need here at Middle Nene.
Competitive and Friendly Racing
Our racing programme runs throughout the year with something for everyone. From our popular Sunday series to Saturday and Wednesday evening racing, there's always an opportunity to test your skills on the water.
