James Gibb Property Management Spring Series for Dinghies
Close competition for the RS400s
The first open event of the season saw a good turnout for the three day series, with 10/11 boats taking part. Good racing was to be had on Wednesday and although the weather wiped out Thursday’s sailing we had an interesting close to the series on Friday evening.
See the full story here. James Gibb Series
Race Results are now available for this series and for the Early Evening Points competition. See Race Results page

Welcome – Royal Forth Yacht Club enjoys a dramatic backdrop of Edinburgh castle and access straight on to open water, perfect for racing and cruising. Though mostly drying there is a wealth of scenic harbours for day sailing along the Fife coast.
Members’ benefits include serviced moorings and ferry service, boat storage, a smart clubhouse with bar, meals and showers. There is a full racing programme for yachts and dinghies, plus training and social events. More information can be found on the pages of the website. See the Cruising page if your interest is in sailing in bigger boats. Also check out our upcoming social events.
We welcome visiting yachts and visitors can lie alongside the pontoons, which are currently being dredged to allow 24-hour access.
Please do contact us (using this link or the menu above) if you have any questions or would be interested in joining the Club.

Support our active racing programme
Our racing programme is now well under way but we still require volunteers for some specific duties later in the year. Whilst the members who compete in the racing are expected to volunteer for their share of the duties, all members are encouraged to participate. For non-racing members this is an opportunity to see a different side of water borne activities as well as to socialize with other members. Initially no skill is needed as there are a number of assistant roles which provide an easy introduction. (See Race Duties Roles.) All members should try it at least once.
Most of the main roles now have names against them (please check DutyMan and confirm your allocations) but there are still a few assistant roles looking for names and we still have to get officials for the Jubilee Event in June and the Festival Series in August.
To volunteer contact the sailing secretary via the usual contact channels. Contact form
