Welcome to the Arundel Boat Club
We are a small group who enjoy being afloat on the Arun. The majority of us have simple open boats powered by outboards, oars and/or sails and there is usually room aboard for a few extra people to join us on our outings.
The club’s only facility is the slipway onto the river 150 yards upstream from the Arundel Boatyard, which in turn is just upstream from the town bridge on the castle side. Access is through the Mill Road car park which is opposite the lower castle gate, then up along the flood defence dyke where the tarmac stops by the entrance to the parking overflow fields.
Note we have no club buildings, boat storage, or moorings.
The moorings on the river at Arundel and the Black Rabbit pub belong to the Angmering Park Estate: 01903 882220
Downstream from the Arundel town bridge, the river is the domain of the Littlehampton Harbourmaster: 01903 721215
There is a public pontoon with moderate charges at the Arundel Town Quay and yacht clubs, yards and marinas at Littlehampton and a facility at Ford.
The Duke of Norfolk has been kind enough to provide the slipway for the benefit of the local community; to be controlled by the club. Funds are limited so we ask an annual ten pound membership fee (with a pound a head for extra family members). Then there is a ‘Slipway Supplement’ of twenty pounds a year; this will give you the combination of the slip-head padlock, so you can use the facility any time you like, though we do ask you to sign a basic form which gives a few warnings and explanations.
We also meet socially at 7.30 pm on the first Monday of every month in the St Mary’s Gate pub at the top of the town on the London Road; come along and see what we’re all about.
I really hope you decide to join us

Chairman, Arundel Boat Club
