Royal Tay Yacht Club
NEW MEMBER OFFER – we’re pleased to offer new members a special one-year membership for just £145, a saving of £88 for their first year. Further details
The club provides fantastic opportunities for sailing, coastal rowing and power boating.
Dinghy racing takes place on a Tuesday evening and social sailing (recreational sailing with safety cover) on Thursday evening and Saturday morning.
We offer a wide range of RYA courses that will take you from beginner to expert in sailing or power boating.
Our junior section runs every Wednesday evening and accepts junior members aged 10 to 18.
We’ve recently opened a new clubhouse and our facilities are superb, both on and off the water and that means we can offer lots of social opportunities too!
We look forward to meeting you and getting you out on the River Tay – it’s a fabulous stretch of water to be on!!

Horseshoe Buoy Race and Stuart Buchanan Trophy
Another classic race date fast approaching... Hoping to see many sailors old and new participating in this race going out in the Tay Estuary, on Monday 27th April 2026. You might spot dolphins, or seals or at least some seabirds returning to the shore for nesting... But obviously this is all about fast sailing, for most... Make sure to register, or if not up to sail yourself, volunteer as safety crew. More »
