Gins Farm, Beaulieu River Rally

This is our third HYC rally to Gins Farm, part of the Royal Southampton Yacht Club. Dinner has been arranged at the clubhouse adjacent to the berths.

You can read more about Gins Farm and the RSYC at www.rsyc.org.uk

Some members may wish to arrive on the Friday and/or depart on the Monday. I will need to know this in advance and will then make every effort to secure the extended berthing.

The Beaulieu River has been owned by Lord Montagu since 1926. In this respect it is virtually unique, for the Montagu Estate owns everything, including the river bed, the foreshore, and much of the surrounding countryside.

In most other rivers in the British Isles the river bed and foreshore to the High Water mark are normally Crown Property. In the case of Beaulieu this was all given away in the 13th century by King John to the monks who originally founded Beaulieu Abbey.

Please express your wish to attend by filling in the Registration Form and more details will be provided as the date gets closer.
