ELYC at the RYA Dinghy Show

02 Mar 2019 9:31 PM | Millar (Administrator)

Representing East Lothian Yacht Club, Commodore John Wilcox and honorary secretary (retired) Alastair Macintyre attended the RYA Dinghy Show at Alexandra Palace for the final of the RYA Club of the Year.

Not only did they promote ELYC’s outstanding hard work and commitment to sailing they showcased the Club’s stylish new polo shirts.

Warmest congratulations to the winners, Royal Torbay Yacht Club.

Huge thanks go to all our volunteers and members who make our Club so successful and an amazing place to sail.


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

  • Buy a ticket for the 100 Club
  • Simply donate, using this link, or at the bar.
  • Attend fund raising events. 

If you’re interested in helping with grant applications, have ideas for fundraising, or would simply like to know more, we’d love to hear from you!
