Who is the Club open to?

Lymington Boat Club is open to anyone over the age of 25 who holds an RYA Level 2 Powerboat qualification or equivalent.

What if I am not qualified?

If you have relevant boating experience but do not have the qualification, you can join and then we will organise and pay for you to do your powerboat qualification on board a Club boat.

New to boating?

If you are new to boating and have neither the experience nor qualifications, please call us to talk through how to become a member.

Annual membership of Lymington Boat Club is a set annual fee of £10,500 for unlimited use of the Club fleet. You may add a spouse or member of your family who lives at your home address as an additional helm at the cost of £1,000 on top of your membership. Please enquire for our latest pricing.

May we charter instead?

It is not possible to charter the Club boats, they are only available to members who join the Club. Please see Solent Rib Charter if you wish to charter boats instead of joining the Club.

Do you offer seasonal membership?

Do you always have vacancies?

Not necessarily. We control membership to ensure that we continue providing unrivalled access to the Club boats. Experience shows that we are more likely to have vacancies for those joining in winter months than during peak season.

A really great business.

A really great business and we thoroughly enjoyed being a member of the club. My wife and I both did our training with LBC and all of the crew and captains we met were friendly and professional, and Hannah was very accommodating with all our requests. Boats were always available, even at the last minute, and were all well maintained and clean. We only left to move to the US or we would have stayed life-long members.

Without question, the best option.

Lymington boat Club run by Hannah and the team is without question, the best option for recently qualified, novice or experienced power boat enthusiasts. Their fleet is immaculate and maintained to full commercial standards with life vests and all relevant safety equipment and rafts), the team that look after you on site are cheerful, helpful, knowledgeable and expert.

Lymington Boat Club is great concept.

The Lymington Boat Club is great concept, for a fixed annual fee you get access to a range of high specification Ribs and Motor Boats. The Booking system is fair and easy for members. The boats are kept in top condition and the LBC staff are always willing to help with any issues are questions. Compared to owning your own boat (I have tried that option) this is so much better.

Lymington Boat club is the place to go.

If you are into boating but don’t want the hassle of ownership then the Lymington Boat club is the place to go. Great choice of boats and located in Lymington haven yacht club in prime pontoon positions. The most impressive thing for me is the focus on safety. The boats are in amazing condition and are superbly maintained.

Maintained to the highest level

The boats are maintained to the highest level and are always presented in immaculate condition. The team perpetually deliver an outstanding service and are helpful, knowledgeable, and fully committed to ensure you have an enjoyable and safe time afloat.

A fantastic club to be a part of.
