Social/non-sailing membership prices are family £94, partners £81, and single £68. Boat parking and storage charges are beach park £60 per boat, grass bank £46 per boat, and sail locker £23 per boat. Later-season new-member discounts are July 50%, August 60%, September 70%, and October or later 80%. The open-day discount was tied to the 16 May 2026 open day, so it is not treated as current after that date.
