Kingsbridge Estuary Boat Club

Formed in March 2006, we are a non-profit making club representing the interests of boat owners and estuary users.

The club aims are:
1. To bring together the local boating community whose interests may vary from simple day boating, coastal cruising or fishing in anything from canoes to dories, small sailing cruisers to RIBs.
2. To raise any concerns and issues arising from members' use of the estuary with the Salcombe Harbour Authority, South Hams District Council, the Town and Parish Councils and the Devon and Cornwall Constabulary

We are an officially recognised forum to the Harbour Board. We operate a very successful Boatwatch around the upper estuary and hope that new members will participate in this. The club meets at the Crabshell Inn, Embankment Road, Kingsbridge. We organise social events which in the past have included evening cruises on the "Rivermaid", barbecues, and beach and Christmas parties. We have a winter programme of meetings on the third Wednesday of the month from October to April when guest speakers are invited. In the summer, we meet on the third Wednesday of the month for informal get-togethers.
