Your first visit is free, after which membership costs £25 per year. New members joining after September are covered until December the following year. Those who wish to attend meetings on a casual basis may do so for a charge of £5 per meeting, payable on the door.

Please note we are associated with the Society for Nautical Research but not part of it: these charges are payable whether you are a member of the national SNR or not.

All meetings are held in the relaxed surroundings of the Royal Maritime Hotel, Queen Street, Portsmouth.
