End of Season Rally to East Cowes 2026 Provisional
![]()
End of Season Rally, East Cowes 10th - 11th October 2026
Join us for our traditional final rally of the year to East Cowes Marina. Dinner on the Saturday evening will be held at the Island Sailing Club (ISC) in West Cowes who always look after us well.
If the weather allows (and it usually does) we will hold a pontoon party at 17:00 and then water taxis will take us from the marina to West Cowes for our evening meal. The water taxis will be arranged from 18:30 and please note that unlike previous years each passenger will need to pay cash on the night (cost TBC but about £5pp). Dinner is at 19:30 comprising a 2 or 3-course hot meal with choices (menus available later).
Normally there is a discounted berthing fee payable to East Cowes Marina for a Saturday night but on this occasion, the Marina may allow us to use one of our 'free' nights.
A Rally Lead will be available to help with questions and bookings, and there are a number of other roles (see Duty Roster below) where we need volunteers to help make the rally more enjoyable. Please take a look and if you can help with a role just click on "Volunteer" or get in touch with events@haslaryachtclub.co.uk and we can explain more details.
Please call the marina as you approach on Ch 80 to receive your berthing instructions. We suggest monitoring on Ch11 (Portsmouth Harbour), Ch 12 (Southampton VTS) and Cowes Harbour Ch 69 as appropriate together with Channel 16.
