Dinghy Racing in Lymington
Royal Lymington Yacht Club welcomes dinghy sailors of all ages. We organise active and competitive dinghy racing for all classes under Portsmouth Yardstick (PY) handicaps and big one-design fleets, including Lymington River Scows, Optimists, RS Teras, Lasers, RS Aeros, RS Fevas, 420s and 29ers.
The club has two dinghy parks and hoses for washing boats down after sailing; applications for a dinghy park permit can be made through the club office. We have a number of dinghies available for hire to members.
Launching can be done at any state of the tide. Note that Lymington Harbour Commissioners (LHC) charge a fee for launching; an annual permit is available from LHC or through the club office with a dinghy park permit.

“Great night last night in particular the junior supper was a huge hit. Lots of great feedback on the lasagna, a good-sized portion, tasted delicious and well presented. Please can you pass on to the chef and his team!”
“On 3rd August we held our Red Fox Annual General Meeting and Annual Dinner at the Royal Lymington Yacht Club. The whole event was a great success. Within days of appointing a new chef you produced an excellent menu for the dinner and arranged facilities for our AGM. You and your staff were always very efficient and friendly, and it all made for a very enjoyable evening. We showed our appreciation by doubling the normal gratuity.”
“We had an excellent Sunday lunch. Please warmly congratulate Darren, your new chef!”
“On behalf of myself and my family, we just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone involved in my father’s wake on Friday. It was utterly perfect, and I truly think he would have loved it. Please pass on our thanks to the lovely staff and yourself who made it run so smoothly. The weather was simply stunning, and the drinks went down a little too nicely!”
“The Burns Night was brilliant! Many thanks to yourself and the team for doing a huge amount of work to make it a great success! Everything was perfect!”
“I thought I would drop you a line to say 4 of us had very delicious sandwiches at the Club on Friday lunchtime. They were perfect for what we required – having popped into the Club for a glass of wine and a quick bite to eat.”
