Water: The sailing water some 4.5 kilometres long by 1 kilometre wide is that portrayed in the frequently seen tourist pictures of Queen’s View, set within wonderful highland scenery, under the shadow of Schichallion. Quick changing light to moderate breezes tend to predominate..
Launching: By one of two slips; one has a jetty alongside and power winch. Fifteens are mainly dry sailed, but one or two choose to lie on moorings directly off the club.
Racing: We have two races every Sunday from early April until mid October. Tummel Week takes place each year in late July, and is a generally a light hearted, family orientated holiday sailing week with two races each day, morning and late afternoon. We usually have 2 or 3 visiting Fifteens and would like to welcome more !. Racing is on handicap in an interesting mixed fleet of all ages and abilities, both people and boats.
Facilities: Clubhouse enjoying views over the racing area and providing the usual changing facilities with catering at open meetings. Camping is often available in the club grounds.
