History of the Club
The Northern Rivers Sailing Club began its activities in 1988 with the aim of fostering racing, cruising and social activities for owners of modern production cruising yachts based on the Norfolk Broads north of Great Yarmouth.
Membership, which is open to owners and their families from all areas, has risen from the initial seven to around sixty at the moment and the club celebrated its twentieth anniversary in 2007.
A varied programme of regattas has been developed which take place on both the rivers and broads at several venues.
For racing and non-racing members alike there are allied social events from pub meals and barbecues to the more formal events of the end of season prize-giving dinner and start of season fitting out supper.
Informal 'Cruises in Company' have proved to be a relaxing and popular alternative to the racing weekends, as have the 'Taste of Salt' weekend and the longer, more adventurous 'East Coast Cruise'.
Situated a mile or so up river from Acle Bridge, The Anchorage has become established as our clubhouse and start line. Members are encouraged to use this facility at any time.
If you like the sound of this welcoming and friendly group of like-minded sailing enthusiasts, why not give us a try? We actively encourage applications for membership from yacht, motorboat owners and non-boat owners alike. Further details can be obtained. Contacts
To all club members if you have any news or events coming up that may be of interest to the club please let us know and if you have a favourite photo that you would like to see on here, it may be of your boat or it could be a river scene, if so just email me a copy and we will see what we can do. Also do not forget we now have a new club forum so you can have your say, or email me with any problems or suggestions
All the best from your Webmaster and Members Member

Here we have a early photo of one of our East Coast Cruises
Two people are out sailing when suddenly a hand appears in the sea.
“What’s this?” asked the skipper, “It looks as if someone is drowning!”
“No,” explained his crew, “It’s just a little wave.”
