About us
The London Sailing Club is a not-for-profit organisation that makes it easy and affordable for people to get involved in yachting, learn about sailing in general, and meet other like-minded individuals.
We’re not a traditional yacht club with a flagpole and a club tie. We’re a vibrant online community whose members organise and enjoy around 50 sailing trips each year - everything from taster days in the Solent to sun-drenched weeks in the Mediterranean.
The Club hosts a monthly social event in Central London, but we’re not just for Londoners. Our membership is diverse and we welcome anyone who is interested in sailing, regardless of ability or experience. Whether you’re a curious novice or a seasoned circumnavigator, London Sailing Club is a great place to meet other fun sailors and get out on the water.

Details
An annual highlight in the Club's calendar, this flotilla weekend is the perfect opportunity to meet and sail in company with lots of LSC members as we explore the famous harbours and anchorages of the Solent. There’ll be plenty of sailing, opportunities to swim and relax, and a drinks reception and informal dinner on Saturday night. This is a non-commercial trip run on a shared-cost basis.The plan
We’ve chartered three MCA-coded yachts which will be skippered and co-skippered by experienced sailors from the club. If there is enough interest we will be able to charter additional boats, so please do join the waiting list even if the event looks full! Last year we had six boats and over 40 sailors!The weekend will begin with people meeting up in Hamble on Friday evening from 5pm at Port Hamble Marina (to drop bags on yachts) and then 8pm in Banana Wharf (the marina's bar and restaurant) for dinner or drinks. On Saturday, we’ll sail somewhere pretty for lunch before heading to a Solent harbour for evening drinks and a celebratory group dinner. There's usually a post-dinner tour of the local bars for those who wish to stay out longer! Sunday promises to be another full day on the water, with crews returning to Port Hamble Marina by 4pm. Accommodation will be aboard the yachts in shared double or twin cabins. Please let us know if there is someone in particular you would like to share with.
