Centenary Dinner - Thursday 19 November 2009
This special dinner was held in the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Glasgow, with special guests and speakers. The event took the place of the Club's annual ball for one year only so the prizegiving and dancing, which will be held on Saturday 28 November, was replaced by the chance to meet old friends and chat.
Initial reports back from those that attended the Centenary Dinner in the Crowne Plaza Hotel indicate that a fabulous night was had by all.

Apart from the special events being organised for the 2010 centenary season, the usual programme of races and musters will continue. We hope to attract more members to our regular events, whether racing, cruising or both.
Brewin Dolphin Scottish Series 2010
The 2010 series is already being planned at Tarbert, Loch Fyne, with the continuing and generous sponsorship of Brewin Dolphin. As in 2009, we will aim to attract championship events to Tarbert as part of the series.
