Ripon Sailing Club

Ripon Sailing Club The Family Friendly Sailing Club The intention of these early members was that it should be a "Family Club" with good fellowship as well as good sailing.

Ripon Sailing Club was formed by a group of enthusiasts from the Ripon area in 1957, sailing initially on the river Ure at Langthorpe, Nr Boroughbridge. We are pleased to say that this is still the aim today, and the number of youngsters and families sailing at Farnham is testimony to that.
