Welcome

A warm welcome to the North Fambridge Yacht Club website.
The club is set in a beautiful location approximately 11 miles inland on the River Crouch and comprises of members who keep yachts either at Westwick Marina or on the river moorings.
NFYC is a small but very friendly club with a packed series of races, rallies and social events all the way throughout the year.
The Club was established in 1898 by our founder member Francis B. Cooke who soon established the Essex 17ft Class and won many races in his own dingy Coryphee. The tradition continues today with our active race program, although the yachts are larger and considerably more comfortable! 

The Clubhouse has an interesting history built as part of Brunel’s modular field hospital for the Crimean war and later shipped to Fambridge where it still proudly stands. You can read more about its history on this website.

Fambridge Yacht Havens provides a weekend launch service between the pontoon and river moorings during summer between  07.00 – 18.00. They also will pay the annual club joining fee for new members for the first year.

Welcome to the New Year and best wishes to you all. An expanded programme of events awaits us and hopefully some brilliant weather, well we can dream!
Our programme this year includes additional opportunities for racing and socializing on and off the water. Do not miss out!
In addition to our usual racing events, four Friday Summer Races have been added and the successful new NFYC Winter Series will be repeated. Visitors from other local Clubs may join us, as at the end of last season. Clearly the expanded racing schedule will mean additional work for our usual volunteers, so extra hands are needed. Any help will be welcome. All in all, the Season looks good so do please join in.
Enjoy,
Chris Whitney, Commodore
