Regatta Car Parking | RBS Dartmouth Week 2008

Priority Parking for Competitors


Anyone who has been to the Dartmouth regatta before will know that parking in Kingswear is very limited. Darthaven Marina car park has few spare spaces but they have no obligation to provide parking for competing crews.

We have now negotiated a Sailing Competitors Car Park a short distance from the marina and can offer 50 parking spaces to competing crews.
The cost will be £25 per car and this charge covers parking from Wednesday to Sunday.

Parking permits for this new facility will be on a first come first served basis.
No permit means no parking in the Competitors Car Park.

To reserve your parking place please let us have the boat name, the car registration number and a cheque for £25. Make your cheques payable to JRSC and send them to:

Joint Regatta Sailing Committee
Royal Dart Yacht Club
Priory Street
Kingswear
Dartmouth TQ6 0AB

Demand is likely to outstrip supply so early booking is advisable.

Car Parking Permit Collection


Car parking permits for competitors who have paid £25 and reserved a space can be collected from the Regatta Reception Desk; situated in the Royal Dart Yacht Club Cadet Room, left hand door inside the entrance, from Monday 25th August onwards.

Darthaven Marina Parking


Please be advised that any crew, skippers or visitors on boats which hold an annual agreement with Darthaven Marina Ltd are not entitled to free car parking, especially during Regatta week.

Visitors are NOT entitled to free parking during Regatta
at Darthaven Marina.

This applies as space is very limited and Darhaven Marina aims to allocate car parking fairly. The use of Car Sharing as well as public transport is recommended as there is no guarantee that car parking space will be available at Darthaven Marina.

Please ensure that there is awareness of the Darthaven Marina car parking and fee policy, before arrival, to avoid any problems.

Note, anyone tailgating or damaging the barriers to avoid payment will be observed. Note, the Darthaven car park and barrier is monitored by CCTV.
