Welcome to Kingsbridge Estuary Boat Club

We are a family friendly club run for the benefit of users of the Kingsbridge Estuary whose interests range from dayboats to canoes and SUPs, from sailing boats to RIBs, from bird-watching to fishing, with the aim of bringing together all members of the boating community. The Club is keen to involve and represent the widest possible spectrum of water users. It is recognised as a consultee by Salcombe Harbour Authority.

WHERE WE MEET

All Club meetings are now being held in the ground floor meeting room of the Regal Club, Kingsbridge.

Please refer to our Calendar and our regular email Newsletters, as well as the general News section of this site for more details.

LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS

March 2024

In the last few weeks there has been significant pollution of the Kingsbridge Basin from sewerage overflows in adjacent parts of Kingsbridge. We have asked the Harbour Authority for guidance and await responses from the Environment Agency and SHDC Environmental Health dept.. In the meantime it would be prudent for any users of waterborne avtivities to treat the water and mud as possible health hazards.

The threat from Covid is now much reduced and there is no official guidance to follow. Similarly we have had no reports about Avian Flu. Thus neither disease will affect Boat Club activities afloat or ashore and we intend ceasing to mention them.
