Dinghy Sailing
Racing twice weekly April until October in Hartlepool Bay and then in Jackson Dock until Boxing Day, the mixed fleet sail together under the PY handicap system.
Our ramp from the club compound is direct into the inner harbour and has an electric winch to assist launch and recovery.
Racing is managed with a committee boat with a safety rib to set marks and assist racers.

If you own a dinghy, live near, come and race with us.
We are always looking for crew.

Flying Fifteens (below) are a regular sight at THYC. These double handed keel boats are renowned for their stability but still offer great excitement in heavier conditions.
