The RCC Pilotage Foundation was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in 2005 and is a registered charity.
It is run by volunteer members of the RCC. The Foundation publishes pilotage information through books and a range of media accessible via its own
website www.rccpf.org.uk.
Creation of new RCC Pilotage Foundation publications and updates to existing publications are only made possible through
the supply of information from around the world by generous-minded yachtsmen and women, and the dedicated work of authors and editors.
Our Marshall Awards are sums of money given every year to encourage and develop ambitious cruising amongst young people between 18 and 30 years.
You do not have to be a member of the RCC to apply.

On the declaration of war with Germany in August 1914 every member of the RCC of an age and in a position to do so, tendered his service to King and Country. By the end of the war
192 members had entered His Majesty's service, of whom 10 gave up their lives for their country.
In March 1919 a request was made by the committee to every member of the Club elected before Armistice Day for particulars of his war record. A summary account of their experiences
based on these records was prepared by Walter Edwin Ledger in what came to be known as "The Golden Book".
