There has never been a better time to join HISC

New members welcome! HISC is so much more than a superb racing venue. 

Those who have been members of Hayling Island Sailing Club (HISC) for a while will agree - this club is as much about family, friendships and fun as it is about racing. 

HISC may be one of the leading competitive clubs in the UK as one of only four RYA coastal Centres of Excellence. However for many of its 3,000 members, it is also a place that holds fond memories of times spent with loved ones whilst learning a new skill on some of Britain’s best sailing waters. 

When people join HISC, they often stay for life and there are plenty of families that have been members for three or even four generations. 

Most importantly, HISC members play a major role in helping run events and many other activities. Everyone between the ages of 18 and 69 is asked to contribute at least a couple of days a year to help run the club’s sailing activities.

The day-to-day management of the club is in the hands of full-time staff, however it is the members that truly shape the future of HISC and that is what makes it such a special club.
