RYA - Clubs

Abstract

The Royal Yatching Association (RYA) UK Coastal Atlas of Recreational Boating (Published August 2019) clubs located in the UK are included in this dataset (clipped to the Welsh Region), correct as of August 2018. Those with no location have been given geographic coordinates if possible. Apart from obvious errors, individual Clubs and Training Centre locations have not been quality controlled for accuracy in this dataset update, as Quality Assessment is carried out centrally by the RYA.

RYA clubs are membership organisations affiliated to the Royal Yachting Association. Each tends to specialise in certain types of activity (for example dinghy racing, sail cruising, power-boating), but all are normally open to passing visitors. The facilities provided usually include both alongside berths and swinging moorings but shore facilities are not normally expected to be to commercial standards. Activity takes place throughout the year, and is expected to peak in summer.
