Tackle Up's first shop was opened on Walton High Street Felixstowe in 2000, and after a 2 years we needed to expand to bigger premises, we relocated to Bridge road in Felixstowe in 2002 and we have been expanding the range of products that we stock ever since, through our website, eBay and now Amazon as well.
Felixstowe Ferry Sailing Club provides great leisure and competitive sailing at all states of the tide from the River Deben in Suffolk on the East Coast. Our club has been the host of many large classes such as Fireflys, Dart 18s, 505s for their nationals and is well known throughout the catamaran sailing community. No matter what you sail, whether it’s a windsurfer, kitesurfer, cruiser, mono-hull or multi-hull we will welcome you with open arms to a great sailing and social club. We have a thriving Youth Sailing section which caters for our younger members and a new 18-25 group for our more adventurous students.
You will have the opportunity to go out on the Mary Amelia – a fully restored 34 foot long wooden 1914 Leigh Sailing Bawley. You will be able to get involved with sailing, learn a little more about the boat and the River Deben and it’s surrounding areas or you can simply relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. She is available for charter for day and weekend trips at only £600 per day. There are two single bunks, and two 3/4 sized bunks aboard, so we are able to offer weekend trips to a maximum of five people, however groups of up to 6 are welcome for day trips. We are also offering evening cruises for £300. All cruises will usually start from our farm in Ramsholt although we can arrange to begin from other locations on the East Coast (such as Woodbridge, Walderingfield or Felixstowe depending on the tide) upon request, although please note that this is likely to incur an extra charge.
