The RNVRYC is a Corporate Member of Hornet Services Sailing Club and RNVRYC members are welcome to use the clubhouse and bar.  There is also a function room and the restaurant, which may be used for meetings or meals for groups provided they are booked in advance.

When attending at Hornet, which is on MOD property, RNVRYC members are requested to take their RNVRYC Membership Card with them for identification, both at the gate and when on site. It is now necessary to produce photographic evidence of identity (such as driving licence) as well to gain access.  If car passes are required, they may be obtained by prior application to the Club Secretary.  Members are invited to visit the website at www.hornetservicessailing.org.uk which has an interesting variety of information about the club, including the Constitution and the Rules.  There is a General area as well as a Members Area.  Access to this Members Area is by user name and password.  These can be obtained from the Club Secretary. 

If members would like to berth alongside for short periods (less than a week), they should contact the Marina Manager beforehand, who will allocate a berth subject to space availability.  Please read the requirements in the rules beforehand.  We do not, as Corporate members, have any berth holders' rights or lift-out rights.  To qualify for these benefits, members would need to be a member of Hornet SSC in their own right.  The Constitution on the website identifies those who are eligible.

The bar and galley opening times for the Hornet Sailing Club are as follows: 

The Bar and Galley are open at the above times throughout the year with the exception of the Christmas shut down period when times will be promulgated in the newsletters.  All times refer to last orders which will be called ten minutes before hand.  The clubhouse will be locked 30 minutes after last orders have been called at the bar. Members and visitors are requested to vacate the clubhouse as required in order that staff may meet this deadline.

Hornet Services Sailing Club newsletters are available in the Library.

Other Clubs

Members are likely to receive a warm welcome at the Royal London Yacht Club in Cowes, with whom we have a close if informal relationship as well as the Royal Malta Yacht Club, Republic of Singapore Yacht Club and Royal Vancouver Yacht Club. Overseas, Club Membership Cards would usually need to be shown.

Cherbourg Marina 

Members presenting their Membership Cards are offered a 20% discount on berthing fees at the marina.
