The club house has a fantastic view over Findhorn Bay and the Moray Firth, with an outstanding sailing area and an enviable heritage.
RFYC offers organised and supervised racing for dinghies and occasional cruiser activities from April though to October with additional mid-week events during the holiday season. Training and coaching, by experienced race coaches and sailors is provided from time to time.
Cafe facilities are available during the day and bar facilities are available in the evenings at weekends. Games and activity areas for children are available at all times, with social programme of both formal and informal events throughout the year. The high-spot of the year is the Regatta Weekend which runs into Findhorn Week. Seven days of dinghy racing with parties every evening make an excellent start to the holiday season.

Gentleman Dinner (Updated)
The Gentlemans Dinner will be held on Friday 27th October. Mark and Stuart are organising it so you can be sure of an excellent evening.
Update as of 5th October: "Just to confirm the date for the gentleman’s dinner will be Friday the 27th NOT the 28th as originally advised."
If you have not already done so, and intend to come, please contact Alison to get your tickets and let her know your name, contact details and details of any guests you are bringing as there will be a table plan.
The evening will consist of a 6 course dinner (see Ian’s menu below) with aperitif and wine tailored to each course. There will be a talk about the wines and how they have been matched to each course. The dinner will be rounded off with a speaker talking about past Commodore William Smith Grant who also happened to own The Glenlivet. The talk will be accompanied with a special whisky.
The dinner will be held in the long room and council room so numbers really are limited to 44. We envisage up to 4 round tables of 11 and the tickets will be £50 per head, wine and whisky inclusive.
Tickets will be available to purchase from behind the bar from Friday 22 September. If you can’t get there in person please contact Alison (This email address is being protected from spambots.
