Welcome to Wakering Yacht Club

Wakering Yacht Club is located at Rochford and sits on the river Roach. It is a tidal location with our boats afloat twice a day. Our club is run by a committee made up from it’s members who manage and operate the club and it’s day to day activities. A number of members have been involved with the club a long time and some have a history at the club along with their family’s being part of the original formation and setup of WYC. It’s Committee members and general members also look after the maintenance and upkeep of the club, facilities, yard and pontoons. But all our members are a team some of which have spent numerous years enjoying, working & socialising at the club. With a combined effort, we strive to make this a great place to relax and unwind of which we are very proud.

We have floating pontoons with space for around 50 boats

Our yard area will hold around 12-14 boats whilst work is carried out on them and we have a small boat storage area mainly for Tenders/Ribs or small sailing boats

Water and Electric is available on the pontoons and within the yard areas.

We have local facilities a short drive away and a cafe and provisions shop within walking distance.

CLUB CRUISE TRIPS: Paul our new “Cruise Captain” has kindly volunteered to come up with ideas for cruises and day trips in the summer months and when the weather permits. This encourages Members to partake in local and East Coast trips, accompanied by others who have long term experience and who know the area and waterways well, these cruise events take place throughout the “afloat” season.
Back in 2019 we completed a successful cruise in which five boats, one of which joining later, over a two week period travelling from Wakering into the Thames through the city and into the more relaxing areas in and around Hampton.

Our 2020/21 season, was quite owing to the pandemic with not too much taking place. Since then we have done a number of short trips to the East coast with a couple of boats visiting Titchmarsh and parts of the East coast for a social getaway, travelling back to Burnham and Fambridge and back to Wakering.

As of the 2022 – 2024 season, we are once again visiting some of our favourite places, including the Medway, East Coast and The Thames, staying at some of the fantastic marina’s we encounter along the way.
