Hollowshore Cruising Club is now in new premises at the head of Oare Creek, beside Oare Road.. We are an active club with a cruising calendar that typically includes organised weekend cruises of the Swale, Medway, the East Coast, and up to London, and longer cruises to Holland, France, and Belgium. We welcome new members - please come along and meet us at the club on Sunday lunchtime between1200-1500hrs when the bar is open. We also enjoy some great socials during the year, with good wholesome activities like Quiz Nights, barbecues, the usual Fitting-Out, Laying-Up and Christmas parties, and even an annual boat-jumble. Finding
us by road is easy. From the A2 behind Faversham, take the 'Western Link' road
from the roundabout just west of Ospringe. At the end of that road, there is a
T-junction, and our clubhouse is directly across the road, facing you, in the
boatyard. If the flag is up, we're open! If you're sailing in, you can't miss us - go all the way to the head of Oare Creek, and we are in the Youngboats building on the left, between the creek and the road. Your charts and pilot books will tell you that Oare Creek dries after half-tide - but with 1.5m draught, a spring tide and a sense of adventure, you can get to us with no problems. Follow your echo-sounder for the first part of the creek, then the last section is marked by pairs of withies which are essential to follow! If the club's not open, you can instead refresh yourself at The Castle or the Three Mariners, in Oare village and both very close to the club.
