Sailing and canoeing on the River Thames in Kingston

We are currently social Sailing and Kayaking on the river individually and in small groups within ‘the guidelines’.  We are hoping to open the bar during July.  eSailing and the ‘virtual bar’ continues on Wednesday evenings.

Minima Sailors and Paddlers are encouraged to get out on the river in small groups and enjoy the good weather.  All activities are currently running from the dinghy park as the Clubhouse is closed.  On Sunday, the launch is manned between 1100 and 1600 for ‘on-water’ support and coaching.  Please observe the guidelines for social distancing, numbers and hygiene.
