About us
Founded in 1892, Sussex Yacht Club (SYC) is a members’ sailing club with superb modern facilities. A home to yachts and boats of all sizes, our main clubhouse, extensive boatyard and moorings are on the River Adur and our original clubhouse and locked moorings are inside Shoreham Port itself. We are one of the most established yacht clubs in Sussex with keen racing and rallying fleets. We are home to a dinghy section where particular attention is given to youth sailors, as well as a rapidly growing Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) section and a very enthusiastic outrigger canoe club. Our dive section has its own rigid inflatable boat (RIB), and diving takes place throughout the year. We are also very proud to have established Sussex Sailability, a charity encouraging and supporting disabled people to start sailing, develop their skills and gain qualifications.

Over two inspiring days, 18 talented female athletes participated in intensive training on SailGP’s iconic F50s. This was the largest women’s training program in SailGP's history - one we’re honoured to have supported through the SailGP Women’s Performance Camp. We're marking milestones for gender inclusivity in sport, creating opportunities and empowering women to compete at the highest level. Through initiatives like this, we’re not only shaping the future of sailing - but we’re also inspiring the next generation of talent across industries. Watch to see what’s possible when we push for new waters together. #DPWorldxSailGP #SmartLogisticsForNewWaters

🚨 Supertrawler fishing off Sussex❗ The Dirk Dirk, a 95-metre supertrawler, has been tracked off Sussex over the last 24 hours. This footage 🎥 was captured by the Sussex Dolphin Project team while monitoring the Dirk Dirk off Brighton last season. These huge factory ships, measuring up to 144 metres long, use nets up to 1 km long and 200 metres wide to target pelagic (midwater) fish species. Supertrawlers are capable of catching thousands of tonnes of fish per trip 🤯, resulting in huge levels of bycatch, including dolphins. 🐬 Please report any signs of bycatch cetaceans either at sea or washed up on the beaches of Sussex. 🙏 For further information, please visit our Dolphins Aren't Discard campaign, which we launched with our colleagues at World Cetacean Alliance to stop dolphins dying in Supertrawler nets: 👇 https://lnkd.in/eMyshqrp ✍️You can also join the 136,000 people who have signed our petition so far: https://lnkd.in/emyKZ76C #brighton #supertrawlers #sussex #bycatch #dolphinsarentdiscard #dolphins #endbycatch
