We are planning to visit Ostend voor Anker this May. How easy is it to get a berth in one of the yacht clubs? . We were thinking of arriving Wednesday and coming back overnight Sunday. All tips gratefully received.

If you are going that early then you should get into Montgomery Dock. If you are lucky you could be stern to against the wall but sometimes it has been rafting up on the pontoons, several deep. It a great place to be. Only boat exhibiting can go through the lock ( unless things have changed, which I doubt).
Great weekend.
I’ve got a couple of the big flags but never done anything with them. I feel a winter project coming on..,,,,

OVA was a highlight of my sailing season, always meeting up with friends, in cathedral sq for a beer &listen to live bands on stage , often a sunny we, if you register that gives you crew privalleges , getting into reception+ you get a "goodies bag"

I remember sailing in company back with you a few years ago Roger when the weather piped up.... as it always does. i was trapped there for a week last year with really strong winds.
We always go further up to the yacht club at the end, less busy but a bit of a walk....

As Roger says, if your boat is over 40 yrs old i think it is, you can get a spot in the inner marina bit as a feebie. ours qualifies but dont like being trapped in there till the end.
