Lochaber Yacht Club

Fort William's only sailing club was first established in 1954. Today the club has an active membership enjoying sailing on Loch Linnhe, right by the town centre. In the summer evenings, a stroll along the waterside after dinner often provides a delightful sight of sail boats in the evening sunshine.

   

The club offers membership to all residents of Lochaber and also has a country membership for those living outside the area.

As an RYA teaching establishment, LYC provides experienced, enthusiastic instructors for Level 1-4 RYA approved sailing courses.

The club has a very large fleet of Toppers and Lasers, with a mixed bag of other dinghies including Bosuns and Wayfarers. There is an established fleet of 8 Solings, which race on Monday evenings.

If you are interesting in learning to sail, the Club can arrange a free come and try session, and welcomes anyone to the club on any of the club evenings.
