Welcome to The Nottage Maritime Institute Web Site
The Nottage Maritime Institute is a Registered Charity, established in 1896, specialising
in teaching not only RYA Shorebased Courses but several of our own unique courses mostly with a nautical flavour.
The Nottage is a local maritime museum with a fine collection of paintings, photographs
and models all with local connections. The Nottage opens to the public on Sunday afternoons from May - September 2.00 - 5.00 pm. (or by appointment during the week) when a special exhibition is also arranged.
The Nottage is home to The Friends of the Nottage, a group of supporters who may use
the Nottage facilities and attend 6 lectures on a variety of subjects during the winter
months for a modest subscription. (to find out more click the tab above)
The Nottage is also home to the Wivenhoe Film Club who meet during the winter months
showing a wide range of films. We have to mention that we have a stair lift at the rear of the building suitable for walking disabled, people that have difficulty getting out their wheelchair may require assistants
