We are writing to advise that crane in will take place on Saturday 1^st April. The crane will be setting up ready to commence lifting by 8.30 am. All lifting activity should be completed by early afternoon. Please note that access to the Granary, Fishermen’s Store, the Dinghy Park and Esplanade will be severely disrupted during this operation, so we apologies in advance.

Harbour Management Team

As many of you will have noticed, our clubhouse roof is leaking, with tubs in the café and buckets in the attic, it’s clear that it now needs to be replaced to protect our much-loved clubhouse for the future.

The good news is that work is underway. Planning permission has been granted, and the project is expected to cost around £50,000. We’ve already secured a £5,000 grant from the North Berwick Trust, are applying for more funding, and will carefully use club reserves while keeping the club financially secure.

Fundraising will play an important part, and we’re keen to make this a fun and engaging process for everyone. Our target for this year, 2026, is £5,000. There are lots of ways to get involved
