A Timeless Cornish Gem set on the Helford River
Port Navas Yacht Club is a friendly members club that welcomes visitors.
Founded in 1958, the Club is part of the picturesque village of Port Navas, set on the beautiful Helford River. From the Club you have access onto The Helford river and out into Falmouth Bay. Or you can go inland down the river to Gweek passing ancient oak forests on the way – but make sure you get the tides right.
The Club welcomes visitors – by boat, by foot and by car.
We have 26 Pontoon berths, 18 creek moorings, 32 beach moorings and racks for small dinghies. Parking is, we are afraid, limited. Where possible, or when the car park is full, please could you park in the village and walk along the charming river front – it’s a three minute walk and good for you!
Visiting boats can use the pontoon, The Club, the shower and the loos.
Our small and quirky Club house serves great value food and drink.
PNYC is managed by Tom and Antonia (Ant) Ellemann.

MOORING APPLICATIONS
Mooring applications have been sent out today to everyone who had a mooring last year so expect those in the post shortly. We will then send out invitations to join as members for 2020. We have had a few online payments where it has been impossible for us to know who has made the payment because there was no reference. And we have also had a couple of people who have kindly joined as members and paid online but we then have no way of contacting them because we have no contact details. Can I ask that anyone paying online does two things:
1) Put your surname on the bank reference
2) Let us know by email that you have made a payment – admin@pnyc.co.uk – and then we can get back in touch

‘Allo ‘Allo!
It seems we have been sabotaged at the club. The ansaphone system has been creaking, but our very own René Artois, no relation to Stella, has saved the day and he, Nigel, assures me it is now working properly again. So please accept our apologies should you have been trying to get through to us.
We are now operating our normal winter schedule of being open from 6pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings. Plenty of space this weekend, so if you missed out last week, now is your chance!
I have begun to tweak the winter menu with a couple of new dishes this week and we are experimenting with some new sweets tomorrow so watch out for changes there!
Nigel and I have put our thinking caps on and looked at the calendar to squeeze in a few events over the coming weeks: see details on this page.
Hope to catch up with you all soon too.

No time for hibernation
Well, its hardly cold enough for that is it!
So, just a quick reminder that we are doing a late Burns Supper tonight at 7.30, with a simple menu of haggis and all the trimmings and a couple of sweets. This all helps Mike readjust to the rigours of working three nights a week, having been lounging around for the last month.
Nigel has been keeping warm in Australia and other points east, so will regale you at the bar with tales of derring do……or something similar.
We are nearly full on Friday night and are already full on Saturday night.
More news of happenings and events to follow soon!
Hope to catch up with you all soon too.
Mike, Nigel and the team
