    RS300 Scottish Series events

    I’ve raced in a couple of regattas over the past two weeks, both very different. Loch Tummel is an amazingly pretty Scottish loch and is one of the better lochs to sail in but not...

    Encouraging New Sailors

    We held our members only club regatta at the weekend and it was specifically targeted at sailors who had never sailed in a regatta or who were a bit nervous of racing in one. The weather helped out greatly with sun on both days and just the right amount of wind. We ran a novice …   Read More

    Something Different

    I had a chance to sail in a 707 just lately in a local regatta. I don’t often sail keel boats but the 707 is described as a big dinghy and it is fun to...

    Ready for the new season

    I finally got to sail my own boat yesterday rather than crash about in a RIB blowing a whistle and it was great to be back on the water again. It’s amazing how the first...

    New RS300 Sail

    I’ve used my new sail now a couple of times and as it is made from the new sail cloth I thought I would let you know my opinion of it. Firstly, it looks fantastic, suiting the RS300 so well and making it look even more cool than it did before.   Read More

    End of Season

    Yesterday the Scottish RS200, 400 and 300s had and end of season sail and party at Dalgety. You wouldn’t believe the weather for November in Scotland. Sun and a nice F2.

    RS300 Inlands

    I had a good time at the RS300 Inlands last month. The great thing about the 300 is the people who sail them. It’s like meeting up with a bunch of your best mates. The sailing is still taken seriously but no is going out to prove a point or do someone else in, so …   Read More
