Situated at Instow, North Devon, England, the Club enjoys spectacular views of the Taw and Torridge Estuary and out into Bideford Bay. There are more than four hundred members sailing: cruisers, day boats, power boats, catamarans and dinghies.
History
When Rear-Admiral Sir Edward Chichester, Bart., was appointed as the first Commodore of the Taw and Torridge Sailing Club in August 1905 the original Taw and Torridge One-Designs were built locally at a cost of £24 complete with sails. The club only became The North Devon Yacht Club after the second world war. The club buildings used today were officially opened by Owen Aisher, President of the RYA, in April 1972. The full story of the Club’s history can be found in the publication "I’m On Starboard" and recently a video tape has been produced.
