Welcome

Housed in modern purpose built waterfront premises at the Queen Anne’s Battery Marina and Events centre in Plymouth which were officially opened by HRH The Princess Royal in 1989, the Club has a very special ambience. It’s superb, uninterrupted views, towards the city’s historic Barbican Elizabethan quarter, the Mount Batten Peninsula and across Plymouth Sound towards Drake’s Island and the Breakwater, all add to its unique appeal.

We welcome all guests and visiting yachtsmen and women to visit us and feel for themselves the relaxed, friendly environment within the club.
