Two dedicated offshore yachts

We founded Speedbird Offshore Yacht Club in 1972, when a small group of sailors came together with the belief that offshore sailing and racing demanded more than a traditional weekend marina club could offer. Originally established as the British Airways Yacht Club, we became fully independent in 2016 and are now wholly owned and managed by our members.
