Regatta Venue | RBS Dartmouth Week 2008


RBS Dartmouth Week 2008 is run by the Joint Regatta Sailing Committee on behalf of the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta Committee. We do so with the full support of both yacht clubs on the River Dart, the Royal Dart Yacht Club and Dartmouth Yacht Club.

Our office is at the Royal Dart Yacht Club which is within easy walking distance of the Darthaven Marina where the Regatta Marquee is located.
You will receive a warm welcome at both clubs.

The Royal Dart Yacht Club


Established in 1866 is situated on the eastern bank of the Dart Estuary in the village of Kingswear. The club house was built for members in 1881.royal_dart_club_1
There is a large ground-floor bar and informal dining area, opening onto the riverside terrace, which is a wonderful place to sit, eat, drink and enjoy the ever-changing river scene. Upstairs is a formal dining room with seating for about 50 people, as well as the much larger Quarter Deck function room and a large balcony with panoramic views of the harbour.
The club is located close to Darthaven Marina.

The Dartmouth Yacht Club


"Please accept a warm invitation to the Dartmouth Yacht Club where we are always glad to see visiting yachtsmen. We can offer you piping hot showers, an excellent bar, meals, bar snacks and good company."dartmouth_yacht_club_1

DYC are organising the Round The Harbour Race. This is a fun handicap race for adults and children. Check in at four points around the harbour, starting and finishing at DYC on the South Embankment.

Boats must be under 16 feet long and may be propelled by any means except power. You can sail, row, paddle and all at the same time if you think that is fastest way!

Application forms are available from Dartmouth Yacht Club, South Embankment, Dartmouth. For more information, ring the club on 01803 832305
