Our Boat "Explorer".

The Garda Siochana, (Irish Police Force), Sailing Club was formed in October 1993 to promote sailing and all its benefits among members of the Force.

The Force now has 2 clubs one on the South Coast and another on the East Coast based in Dublin.

Membership of SCGSC is open to Garda and non-Garda members.  If you would like to learn more about what we do why not e mail us through the link at the bottom of this page.

SCGSC is the proud owner s of  "EXPLORER"  a Beneteau 393, see photos on the gallery page.  SCGSC has previously owned a Westerly Konsort and Jeanneau SunFizz

The 2005 cruising programme to date has included a number of cruises on the South West Coast and 2 aborted cruises to the Isles of Scilly off Cornwall.  Even the foolhardy occasionally stay in port in bad weather.

In the racing front the club has competed in the Round Ireland and Cork Week races.  Already in 2005 the club claims a 3rd place in the Cobh Regatta and third overall in the Cove Sailing Club September League.  We also achieved a notable 6th place in the Royal Cork Yacht Club Autumn League White Fleet, Well done everybody concerned.

In Racing in 2006 the Club placed 3rd in White Fleet in the annual Blackrock Race, we have also competed in several of the Leagues hosted by Cobh Sailing Club during the summer with notable results.

 

We would welcome contact from other police force sailing clubs internationally.
