On Saturday 14 June the Vice Commodore’s Cup for single handed boats was sailed in some very interesting weather. To say it rained is an understatement and the wind was very variable. Congratulations to Iain Millar in his Laser Radial for retaining the Laser cup. Unfortunately there were no Solos sailing so that cup was not awarded.
Sunday 15 June, in much more steady wind and without the heavy rain, saw double handed boats compete for the Vice Commodore’s cups for Mirrors and Enterprises. In total 3 Enterprises, 4 Mirrors, 1 RS Feva and 2 Laser 2000s were on the water. The wind was steady enough for the RS Feva and Laser 2000 to have a go at using their spinnakers. Charles Morrish with crew Dan Swaffield won the Enterprise Cup. Gerry Goodfellow with his son Lewis crewing for him won the Mirror Cup. Well done to Charles for retaining his trophy.
Below is a selection of photos from the weekend.

This year our Opening Social was held on 20 April. Despite the earlier forecast the weather was wonderful – unless you were sailing and looking for some steady wind. Commodore Mike Lewis opened the proceedings with a short speech of welcome to everybody including our new members and he presented Lorry Young with his RYA Long Service Award. This was given to Lorry for all that he does for the club and all of us appreciate the help he gives to all of us.

It is with great sadness that we learned of the death of “Doc” Ian Brown, who passed away on 26th March 2025.
Doc was a great friend to the club and its members and loved his Mirror sailing.
He will be sorely missed.
On 18 January some 70 plus members of the sailing club gathered at The Carfraemill near Lauder to celebrate the season past and to look forward to season 2025.
There wasn’t a wet suit in sight but a glance at the car park saw that several members had opted to practise their van living skills in preparation for the new season.

St Mary’s club members visited Forfar Sailing and Watersports Club over the weekend of 28 and 29 September, and came away with some of the silverware. The club sails on Forfar Loch, a small area of water where the boats are always close together, the wind is never constant, there are often big windshifts, and patchy wind coverage. Sounds a lot like St Mary’s, apart from the size of the loch!

The wind on Saturday was Westerly F4 gusting F6 and the Race Officer took the fleet further down the Loch for less shifty conditions, nevertheless the rescue teams were still kept pretty busy!
