Come and explore the interesting challenges presented by the tidal effects around the Farnes.
Beadnell Boat Club was formed in 1935 after a very successful Regatta in the bay. Major Burton GC OBE was elected Captain at the first AGM and Sir John Craster was President. In 1939 a Clubhouse was proposed, and a building fund started, but due to obvious world events it was not until 1952 that the land was bought. The Clubhouse was officially opened by the then President, Miss Mary Runciman in 1955.
In 1948 the name of the club was changed to The Beadnell Sailing Club.
The first boats were a mixture of wooden sailing dinghies and moored sailing vessels. Members sailing included the families of Brown, Wright, Hoult, Scott, Baty, Hogg, Garrett, Porteous, Cook, Clements, Watson, Armstrong and Forster. Many of these families are still members three generations on.
