West Mersea Yacht Club has just completed a major refurbishment of its clubhouse in addition to upgrading its facilities both on and off the water. The club aims to provide a warm welcome to visitors and offers new services to benefit both members and visiting yachtsmen and women.

Last year the club created a new bar, The Molliette Bar, on the first floor with access to a balcony and seating area providing spectacular views of the harbour, marshes and some of the best sunsets to be found anywhere. This bar also services the Long Room, which is available for hire for functions.

In March a refurbishment of the ground floor was also completed. This included a complete redecoration of the bar and restaurant areas. The selection of beers, wines, spirits and mixes has also been enhanced.

A second mooring pontoon is being installed in Ray Channel, only about 200m from the landing jetty. This will provide welcome additional moorings for the benefit of both members and visitors.

The operating hours of the club’s launch service have also been extended. From April 30 to September 30 the launch service will now operate until 2300hrs on Fridays and Saturdays and 2100hrs on Sundays. This means that you can now fully enjoy your visit by boat to West Mersea and the WMYC and relax in the evening in the club to enjoy the new chef’s menu and socialise in the bar without having to worry about how you will get back to your boat.

Since 1899 the West Mersea Yacht Club has established itself as a leading yacht club on the east coast and has slowly but surely been improving its facilities ever since for both members and visitors alike. These latest improvements are a continuation of the Club’s commitment to provide a warm and welcoming experience to all visiting yachtsmen and women. Just call YC1 on VHF Ch. 37 on arrival and the Club launchman will guide you to a mooring.
