Loch Lomond Sailing Club

Loch Lomond Sailing Club Originally founded in 1873 as the Clyde Canoe Club (sailing canoes) Loch Lomond Sailing Club has been on the shores of Loch Lomond in Scotland since 1898.

LLSC offers some of the finest inland sailing cruising and racing in the UK. Welcome to Loch Lomond Sailing Club, one of Scotland’s foremost inland sailing clubs, with an extensive racing and training programme using both the open waters of the east side of the loch near Milarrochy Bay and, for longer races, all the wider loch with its stunning scenery. From Easter to October we have a vigorous ra

cing programme on Saturdays and Sundays, with class racing in flying fifteens and handicap racing in several dinghy fleets and in the keelboat fleet. In the handicap keelboat fleet, Achilles 24 yachts have a strong presence, and in the high–performance dinghy fleet, trapeze craft are well supported, particularly Moths, Laser 4000s, 5000s and 505s, plus International Canoes. Wayfarers and Lasers are the mainstay of the medium handicap fleet, with a few Laser 2000s and RS200s. Our junior fleet is in resurgence with Toppers and many new Optimists now present, emerging from the vigorous junior training programme. We are a club with a friendly, family atmosphere and a do-it-ourselves approach to repairs and maintenance, and training is available in safety boat handling skills. We have club social events at various times of the year, plus the informal social life around the fireside on Saturday evenings! New members are always welcomed, as are visitors to our open events – an open dinghy weekend in early September and an open flying fifteen and keelboat weekend in early October, with occasional other class events. Interested in membership? We'd love to invite you along to find out more, please contact the secretary in the first instance. [email protected]

What a difference a day makes. Weather looking much more compliant this morning with a F3 forecast, with occasional stronger gusts. Current expectation is to get on the water as per the Sailing Instructions.

04/10/2025

Good morning. The weather overnight at the club hit wind speeds of over 50kts, but as per the forecast it has dropped now away to 16kts currently. It is due to build again this afternoon but not as strong as last night. Routes to the club are accessbile with care as there is debris on the road and some fallen branches do narrow it to one lane in places. Please follow local advice for your route if travelling.

If you still plan to come, the fire is on, the bacon is cooking and registration will stay open later than planned to allow people arriving later to still register. If the weather prevents sailing today, the cafe will be open all day, and the bar will open later in the afternoon. The weather remains much more moderate tomorrow, so we still intend to do everything we can to get you on the water at some point over the weekend.

Many of you will have been monitoring the weather for the weekend and see that there are strong winds forecast, particularly on Saturday, with Sunday looking better. The Keelboat Open Event is still be going ahead and we‘ll make a decision on each day as normal based on the real time weather. We really hope that as many people as possible come and enjoy the club, the bar and the dinner, and we will do our very best to get you on the water when we are able. However, I would urge individuals to make their own decisions about travel and the local weather on their specific route, following any local or government advice relevant to their journeys. Looking forward to seeing you at the weekend.
