The money raised went to the RNLI.
Dave Gardner, Chairman of the Bexhill branch of the RNLI, said: "We're trying to open up the Sailing Club and the RNLI to more people.
"We've got a programme of speakers lined up, including coastguards and saling instructors. We plan on holding events in the summer where members of the public can come and try sailing. It's a friendly atmosphere, and the more people who come, the better support for the RNLI."
The event takes place from 10-12 noon on the last Thursday of every month, with next month's being on March 26 at the Sailing Club.
The 50p entrance fee includes a coffee and biscuits.
