Social Sailing Calendar

06 May 2024 4:04 PM | Kinnie (Administrator)

Social Sailing sessions are about having fun on the water in a safe, friendly, structured and controlled environment and are supported by a great team of volunteers.

To run these sessions we need volunteers so if you are planning to take part could you please register for at least one assistant cox duty, preferably two. If you have completed our ELYC Safety Boat Course or have equivalent experience, please register as cox. All the duties are on dutyman. If you don't have access yet, please email racing@elyc.org.uk and request access.

Once you have registered to take part in a session you will receive an email confirming your place and advising what time you need to be ready to sail.

If you don't feel confident enough to sail by yourself and would like to sail with a more experienced sailor, or if you have any questions or concerns please get in touch by emailing membership@elyc.org.uk.

Hope to see you on the water!

As many of you will have noticed, our clubhouse roof is leaking, with tubs in the café and buckets in the attic, it’s clear that it now needs to be replaced to protect our much-loved clubhouse for the future.

The good news is that work is underway. Planning permission has been granted, and the project is expected to cost around £50,000. We’ve already secured a £5,000 grant from the North Berwick Trust, are applying for more funding, and will carefully use club reserves while keeping the club financially secure.

Fundraising will play an important part, and we’re keen to make this a fun and engaging process for everyone. Our target for this year, 2026, is £5,000. There are lots of ways to get involved
