The founders included Bernard Redwood, Lionel de Rothschild, Basil Joy, John Scott-Montagu, S F Edge, Tom Thornycroft, Major Lindsay Lloyd, Captain Dixon, Linton Hope, E A Whitehead, F P Armstrong and eleven others. From this list it is easy to see that these were influential men in the marine world. From yacht designer to banker, from torpedo inventor to marine engineer. The club has evolved and today has great social and catering facilities. We have been lucky enough to take advantage of the joint membership of Tim Roots who is member of the Chaine and RMYC so we can use the private club.

We will have opportunity to relax in stylish and comfortable surroundings of the RMYC and enjoy the views and contemporary cuisine.

I would like to thank Tim Roots our Chilterns and RMYC member for facilitating the event and all the help from Neil Earle the F&B Operations manager at the club.
