The club will be running a First Aid Course on Sunday July 1st, with a particular emphasis on First Aid afloat. This is an excellent opportunity to get qualified as a First Aider, or if you last did a First Aid course over 3 years ago, to requalify by getting an update. Course will run at cost price for members. More information and booking details here.

We would like to invite you all to the exciting event coming to The Black Isle on 30/6-1/7/12. Chanonry Sailing Club and Nairn Sailing Club are combining forces to host the first Moray Firth Scottish Youth Series Dinghy Regatta, which is to be held at Chanonry Sailing Club, Fortrose. This is a large ranking event, one of 5 to be held around Scotland this season, and quite unprecedented in terms of scale.  Families will be coming from all over the country to race their sailing dinghies in the Moray Firth, from the youngest 7 years olds in Optimists up to very experienced National Squad members sailing 29ers. A total of 10  classes will be competing here including coached fleets for novice competitors. Although this is primarily a Youth event, Laser Standards are participating too. Over 18s will be permitted to race.

There are still 20 places available for Andreas’ Greek Night for Club members next Saturday. The bar will be open as usual for Club events.
The evening is being offered at the very reasonable price of £16 per head, as compared with his usual price of £22. Andreas has been a very good friend of ELYC, so come and support him – as anyone who has been to a Greek Night before will know a very fun evening is guaranteed.
