ESC has a growing fleet of dinghies available to hire, saving you the cost of buying, billeting, insuring and maintaining a boat. We also hire out stand-up paddleboards (SUPs), kayaks and windsurfers. These can be booked via 'Book/Club boats' on the ESC website. Whatever your age and your interests, we have a wide variety of equipment available to keep you on the water, whether you're racing competitively, needing a boat to participate in one of our RYA training courses, or just messing about with friends and enjoying the beautiful waters of Emsworth.
For pleasure use, members may hire a dinghy if they have prior experience of sailing that type of boat or are otherwise experienced sailors capable of sailing it competently. If there is any doubt, an induction session can be arranged on request.
Choose from the following:
1) OPTIMIST
2) RS TERA SPORT (Pro sail is available upon request)
4) 420
6) 2000
8) CHICHESTER SCOW
10) STAND UP PADDLE BOARD (SUP)
11) WINDSURFER
12) CELTIC LONG BOAT (as part of an ESC-organised coxed rowing session)
Terms of hire
Using a boat from ESC's hire fleet is conditional upon adhering to the Guidelines For Use and Terms of Hire.
When hiring a SUP, the 'Stand Up Paddleboarding at ESC' document needs to be read and understood.
