Could you help launch a young sailor's career? Dinghies wanted at Rotherham Sailing Club!

We're on the hunt for Toppers and Lasers to refresh our training fleet and keep our cadets out on the water. If you've retired from racing, upgraded your boat, or have one sitting unused in the garden gathering moss, it could find a brilliant new home with us — teaching the next generation to sail.
We'd love to hear from you if you have:

⛵️ A Topper — perfect for getting our cadets started

⛵ A Laser — great for progressing sailors onto something faster

What we're looking for: boats that are sailable as they are, or just need a bit of TLC — not full restoration projects. (And yes, we'll always come and have a proper look before saying yes — better that than discovering a soggy hull halfway through the season!)

Donations are a brilliant way to support grassroots sailing and give an old boat a second life, rather than a slow death in a garden corner. We're a small club and every boat makes a real difference to what we can offer our members and cadets.
Know someone with a Topper or Laser they no longer use? Tag them, share this post, or drop us a message!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads, granddads, and father figures at RSC. ⛵- we salute you.
Today's photos span generations — from a member's dad, a Humber Keel sailor ("Wish he had lived long enough to teach me his skills"), to our Commodore's grandfather in his naval days, right through to dads on the helm today. Sailing has a way of running in families and in memories.
To everyone teaching the ropes, holding the tiller, or just making sure buoyancy aids are zipped up right — happy Father's Day. 💙

Summer's finally here, and the water's calling.
Honestly, there's no better feeling than getting out on the water on a day like this. If you've ever fancied giving sailing a go, now's the time — our training courses are open and spaces are going quick.
New to it all? No worries, we'll get you out there and feeling confident before you know it. Sailed before? Come join the gang, we're a friendly bunch and always up for more people on the water with us.
All ages, all abilities — just come and have a go.
Fancy it? Drop us a line at [email protected] and we'll get you involved .
See you down at the club

Rotherham Sailing Club is back to Junior racing with NEYYSA (North East & Yorkshire Youth Sailing Association). Well done Teddy aged 13 (sail number 86737) for flying the flag for the club in challenging gusty conditions at Ulley Sailing Club. Thank you to the members of Ulley Sailing Club for their hospitality, warm welcome and professionalism. He really enjoyed it and came home to RSC with a big smile

Big vs Small!!

Fantastic to see the club so busy today with all sections of the club enjoying the water and the weather.
