Royal Tay Yacht Club
SPECIAL JUBILEE OFFER – It’s the club’s 140th Anniversary this year, so we’re pleased to offer new members a special one-year membership for just £140, a saving of £85. 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!!
