current web-site development

This site, whilst fully functional in its present form, is still being improved and more content added.  Currently it has trial features, temporary images, etc, and there will be changes. But it has been made accessible to members now to allow for constructive feed-back. As a 'content managed system', flag officers will become responsible for maintaining content rather than everything being reliant on one web-site administrator.

2012 Beer Festival - 2nd / 3rd March

 come along and join in the fun - and the selections of beer are superb

Welcome to the Royal Cinque Ports Yacht Club (RCPYC), Dover, England

Thank you for visiting the new RCPYC website, and we hope that it provides you with useful information about the Club, its officers, facilities and activities.

If a member, constructive feed back would be welcome, and if not already a member, hopefully we can welcome you soon as a visitor or a new member.

Club Merchandise - look smart and support your Club!

Watch this space for new arrangements on all items

Lesley now has access to a superb range of clothing, both ladies’ and gents’, and some samples are available to view and try on in the office. There is also a catalogue of available items at the Bar.  As soon as we can, we will put some examples here on our website, but the best plan is to go and see our range in the Clubhouse.

The club logo and your own boat name can be added at a very small cost. Our suppliers can also set up your own design for a reasonable initial cost, and they do a very fine job of the embroidery.

Contact Lesley on 01304-206262 for more inforation.
