Club Boat Hire
Club Boats
We have over 30 club dinghies for members to hire including Toppers, Topper Argos, RS Qubas, RS Fevas, Laser and Wayfarers. These are grouped into three main categories:
| Single-handed – e.g. Topper, Quba, Laser £5 | Multi-handed – e.g. Wayfarer, Feva £10 | Multi-handed – Argo £15 |
You can find detailed information for rigging the boats in the following documents. No need to memorise it all – nearly everything is kept rigged during the season.

New Booking System:
We are in the process of moving to an improved system for booking and paying for club boats online. At present, members can book club boats (by clicking on the blue ‘book now’ button below and they will receive confirmation by email, but once the booking has been made and confirmed, we ask you to pay online via the store on your personal DYC membership page (https://membermojo.co.uk/debenyachtclub)
