Your Host

Your host is Steve H. Any questions, email commodore@gaysailing.org.uk.

Getting Help to Join Us

Crew seeking berths should visit the S&CA Crew Match WhatsApp group first. If you’re not in the group, or don’t have any luck there, please contact the event host.

Land-based members are welcome too, and may want to book one of the local hotels or B&Bs in the area.

What You Need to Do

  1. Register your attendance via the S&CA website by 9 October.
  2. Visit the WhatsApp S&CA Crew Match group for crewing opportunities.
  3. On approach, skippers should contact the harbour/marina by VHF for berthing instructions, stating you’re part of the S&CA / Sailing & Cruising Association Rally.
  4. You can bring along friends — just add them as a guest when you register. Guests can only be added at the time of registration. If you want to add a guest later and the event didn’t require payment, cancel and re-register with your guest added; if payment was required, contact the event host.

Cancellations and Refunds

We’ll aim to give a full refund for event charges when you cancel by contacting the organiser, commodore@gaysailing.org.uk, in good time — normally at least a week before the event.

If the club has already made third-party bookings, paid deposits, or taken on other commitments for the event, only a partial refund (or none) may be possible.

If you’re requesting a refund because you were unhappy with a third party’s goods or services, we can only refund you if the third party refunds the club.
