Membership details
Annual Fees 2013
Single Membership………………………………..£53
Family Membership……………………………….£65
Student Membership ……………………………..£25
Fees are for the calendar year (January to December)
New or lapsed Members are also required to pay a £40 joining fee. This fee is waived for Junior Members (under 21 years), Full Time students and applicants who have attended a course at Whitlingham Outdoor Centre.
The fees include the use of the private car park, changing facilities with WC and hot showers, private grassed rigging area, private sandy launching beach, club boards / rigs (which must be used together) and informal instruction from RYA qualified instructors subject to availability.
It is a condition of membership that all members * must have the following:
1. Third party windsurfing insurance. This protects you from having to sell your house if a claim is made against you. It also ensures others are compensated should you injure them.
2. Broads Authority ‘Sailboard license’. Hickling Broad is privately owned, the licence gives you the right to sail on it. Visit the Broads Authority web site for fees and how to apply. Click here.
* If a member is using the club’s starter kit, then insurance and a Broads Authority License are not required as club kit is covered by club insurance and licence.
Day Members
Visitors to the area can sail as day members. The cost is £10 per person per day. A receipt for the day fees will be given.
Access to the club facilities is by combination locks and the combination cannot be given to non-members. Sailing as a day member is therefore dependent on club members being on site to let visitors in (and out). Visitors must sign a form declaring that they have third party insurance. The Club’s starter boards and rigs are NOT for use by day members: They are there for the benefit of full members only please.
