Sailing opportunities at Hunts SC

Hunts Sailing Club is a family-friendly club in St Ives, Cambridgeshire. Everyone is welcome, whether you’ve sailed before or not. Racing, training, and casual sailing happens at weekends but also during the week. 

If you sail already you might be interested in fleet racing (Lasers and Solos) or handicap racing (anything from Mirrors to D-Zeros to RS200s to Fireballs!). If you want to learn to sail, we run regular beginner and improver courses for adults and kids. And if you simply want to mess around in boats, that’s us!

Enjoy racing at Hunts SC

Many club members enjoy racing at all skill levels, regardless of the type of boat. If you’ve never raced before, we’ll help you get started. We provide class and handicap racing as well as hosting Open events.

Most racing happens on a Sunday year-round, but in the summer, what better way to spend a Wednesday evening than coming to the lake after work for a race and enjoying a drink with friends? In addition to our regular fixtures, we organise special events throughout the year, offering plenty of opportunities to improve and develop your skills.

Learn to sail at a family-friendly club

Hunts Sailing Club provides an excellent learning environment in a friendly club atmosphere. We are an RYA Training Centre and offer regular courses for beginners and improvers (both adults and young people). 

And you don’t even need to start out with your own boat; we also have a variety of club-owned boats that you can hire at reasonable costs (these include: Oppi, Topper, Pico, Quba, Feva, 2000, Hartley 12).

So whether you’re a complete beginner, would like to improve your skills, or get an RYA qualification, we have something to offer you at Hunts SC!
