25.01.2022 Congratulations to F111 who sailed into first place on the weekend. The fresh south-easterly breeze was ideal for the multihulls, with Biton Daside coming second and the mono It's Magic third.

24.01.2022 Curlew had a win today in Race 2 at Airlie Race Week! Fourth yesterday in Race 1.

24.01.2022 Great day for Curlew today- on the podium in first place! Fifth place in Race 6 today so yesterdays race was a drop.

23.01.2022 We are nearing our destination in the Caribbeans and can now see the finish line in our screen! Our Handicapper is currently in the lead (out of our club team), with the Commodore following closely behind and our Boat Captain in third place. We are all close to the front of the global fleet which is now in the 70 000s.

20.01.2022 Impulse and F111 sailing in Race 5 of the Summer Season. Both managed a third and second respectively, but the day was won by Biton Daside in the series race. Gigha enjoyed a relaxing sail around the marks on the KISS course.

16.01.2022 Our first race for the Winter Season was sailed on Sunday once the fog had cleared. It was a very light wind race in a strong incoming tide. The whole fleet managed a finish though with Its Magic coming first in the PBH race and Ara Leonis in the K.I.S.S. Race. Everyone enjoyed a presentation and social gathering in The Boat Club afterwards.

16.01.2022 Not a great result today for Curlew - twelfth. Now fourth overall and hoping for more breeze tomorrow so the last race is sailed for a chance to come back. Very light winds today and the start was delayed to 1.30pm. Curlew finished just before sunset, the time limit. Photo : Race 4 yesterday

04.01.2022 The Yacht Squadron is racing virtually with Virtual Regatta Offshore in the Transat race from France to the Caribbean. We have just rounded the mark at the Canary Islands and heading across the Atlantic- trying to avoid the doldrums. We have 3 yachts racing but its not too late to join our fleet. Theres still at least a week of racing to go. We are racing with nearly 65000 skippers from around the world.

02.01.2022 On the weekend a few of our members were fortunate to view the SailGP live. Here was some of the action.
