Easter Rally Newsletter

Published 11:56 on 2 Mar 2026

Your Rally Committee has proposed a full programme of six Social Boating events for the coming season, which we hope will attract both suitable weather forecasts and a good number of Members and their vessels.  To start the ball rolling, we are pleased to announce our first of the season, the Easter Rally to Guernsey (and possibly Herm) 3^rd 6^th April.

Below you will find a link to register please do so NOW if you intend joining us, or even if you think you might, as there will NOT be a further call to register.  All further communications will be via the emails you enter on registration.

Our itinerary is currently as follows:

• Friday 3^rd April Depart Jersey for Guernsey on the morning tide (HW at 08:09).  The faster boats will make Victoria Marina on the morning tide with the more leisurely cruisers joining us on the evening tide.  There will be a complimentary welcome drink at the RCIYC clubhouse at 18:00.  Eating this evening will be at individual choice.
• Saturday 4^th April A day at leisure in St Peter Port, shopping and exploring.  After a likely aperitif on the pontoons, we have a meal booked at La Perla in the evening, please indicate on the registration form how many people you expect to join us at the meal.  This can be adjusted on arrival, but we need an idea of numbers in advance.
• Sunday 5^th April There is a possibility of a day-trip to Herm, either in our own boats or the ferry, to be arranged closer the time, depending on the weather forecast.
• Monday 6^th April return to Jersey on the morning tide (HW on 09:32).

We are offering those who are new to this route, or who prefer the security of travelling with other boats an option to Cruise in Company.  If you wish to take advantage of this, please click the relevant box on registration. 

The cost of entry is £5 per person for Members, and £10 for non-members attending.  This is refundable if we have to cancel due to bad weather.

Kind Regards,
