We are a society for people interested in ships and all things nautical.  We have monthly meetings, with a guest speaker, and have talks on all aspects of shipping – general cargo, container, tanker, cruise and ferry, naval, tugs, workboats, ports, etc.

Membership is to the national organisation, The World Ship Society, and costs £26 a year.  This includes a monthly email with our 64-page magazine “Marine News” and the 35-page “Marine News Supplement”.

Our monthly meetings are on the fourth Thursday of the month (January to November) and the second Thursday in December.

January-April and September-December, Start Promptly at 2pm
May-August Meetings start promptly at 7.30pm
