Brading Haven Swans

Brading Haven Swans This page is for all Brading Haven Yacht Club owners pass and present and anyone who loves these bo

The Swans were built of wood and a few of the 20 or so that were built in the 1950's still survive, a testament to their owners' dedication. Many are the more recently produced GRP version and they are a fine and versatile vessel: roomy enough for a family picnic, fast enough to make racing interesting.

Great to see two BHYC Swans racing in the BHYC Boxing Day race.

The Swan

Designed by Alan Coombes in 1955, the Swan has been a familiar sight at Brading Haven Yacht Club (BHYC) for many years.

The older Swans were built of wood and a few of the 20 or so that were built in the 1950's still survive, a testament to their owners' dedication. The GRP version joined the fleet in 2005, built by E Wade & Co. Moored together in Bembridge Harbour, their colourful hulls that rise and fall with the tide are a delight to behold.

The "Swan" is a stable, half decked day boat with a main and jib. It is a versatile vessel, roomy enough for a family picnic and fast enough to make class and handicap racing interesting.

They race with the slow handicap fleet having a Portsmouth Yard Stick number of 1290; however they do have their own series and the annual Swan Championship. Designed for longer passages, owners can also enjoy day sails further afield, either racing or recreational. If you require more information please look at the Sailing Programme or contact Linda Briant at the Club.
