Welcome to Flushing & Mylor Pilot Gig Club

We are renowned for being a friendly, inclusive gig rowing club based at the Kiln Quay, Flushing. We own a fabulous boathouse where our gigs are stored as well as use of another shed down on the actual beach.

We have 6 Cornish Pilot gigs four of which are a traditional wooden construction and the other two plastic replicas for training and socials. (see Gig Fleet). There are rowing sessions both during the week and at weekends and consist of a mixture of recreational and race-orientated crews of various levels. Bookings are managed using our booking system which enables members to plan their rows in advance and have full visibility of what sessions are on offer. We also offer members access to two Concept2 RowErg machines situated at the Gig Shed that can also be booked for off-water training and general fitness.

Gigs are launched from Flushing Beach after a short trolley ride from the boathouse down the lane. Due to our location, we are lucky to have multiple options; such as the sheltered waters of the inner harbour up to Penryn, the main harbour, as well as Falmouth Bay, Carrick Roads and beyond depending on the weather conditions providing some outstanding opportunities to row our boats and enjoy the amazing surroundings - the location is simply second to none!

We are a member of the Cornish Pilot Gig Association (CPGA) which governs the sport and provides standards, rules and policies for clubs. We adhere to the CPGA Code of Conduct. CPGA membership enables us to take part in racing events throughout the year. We’re also affiliated with the Cornwall Rowing Association (CRA).

Additionally, our status as a CIO, Charitable Incorporated Organisation, means we’re tasked with promoting and encouraging the sport to all sections of the community and keeping subscriptions at levels that will not pose a significant obstacle to participating.

Our membership year is currently July 1st to June 30th and costs £150.00 for an adult member. 

However, NEW members joining after January 1st will pay a half year subscription but please note this does not apply to those who have already been members in the previous year. NEW members joining in June will get 13 months for their annual fee. 

In addition anyone joining or renewing their membership on July 1st but failing to pay their full subscription by March 1st will no longer be a member of the club and will be removed from club systems. Monies already paid will not be refunded.
