We share the clubhouse and sailing water with Sutton Sailing Club with whom we have a good working relationship.

What we do:
We sail and race radio controlled yachts on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons each week; races normally start at 1.30pm.

The boats that we race:
Footy- the smallest of the yachts at one ft long
Micro Magic– A very popular one design class 
Dragon Force 65: Also a popular one design class that can be fitted with a larger sail.
Dragon Flight 95: A new class that is rapidly growing in popularity.
RG65:​ A popular international class that can also include Dragon Force 65
International One Meter: The designs within this class can vary with the newer and more expensive boats becoming more competitive than older designs. 

Facilities: 
We are fortunate to use the excellent clubhouse and facilities of Sutton Sailing Club which provides a good view of the all the water and race area. Tea and biscuits is available on our sailing days.

Club Officers:
The names and email addresses of the above can be found on the club web site. Any of these will be pleased to help you especially during the early days of your membership.

Membership Fees:
Our fees are among the lowest in the Midlands area and you are welcome to visit the club three times before making a decision to join or not. Visitors from other model yachting clubs are welcome and after three free visits may pay a daily fee of £5 for a further three visits each year.

Training and coaching:
We have regular sessions that are published on the web site and by personal email to every member. If you want some help, just ask one of the committee members.

The Club Rules and Constitution:
​
These are available on a different tab on this web site.
