The Club ...
INTRODUCTION
Lossiemouth Cruising Club sails from Lossiemouth Marina in the ex fishing
port of Lossiemouth in Moray, Scotland. It is an active club with a full racing,
muster and social programme held throughout the year. Activities take place in
the bay and the Moray Firth and members often venture as far afield as Orkney
and the West Coast of Scotland.
When not on the water or at their boats members can often be found enjoying
a refreshment in the Steamboat Inn on the harbour front. If you're keen to try
sailing then come and chat or contact the secretary as crew are always in
demand.
LOCAL SAIL REPAIR
For those requiring sail repair, as well as Charlotte, there is a local man at Kinloss who is a sail repairer.
Tim will not tackle major sail reconstruction but will carry out minor repairs at modest cost.

Dear All
Thought I would just drop you a quick update on events between seasons and plans for next season.
The membership year is to change in line with the sailing season and will now run from 1 April – 31 March. Tom will be chasing
us for annual membership fees in the New Year.
Willie is working hard on the 2015 race and muster programme and we should have this published by 28 February. I can let you
know that during the mid summer break in racing, the month of July, we are planning a cruising holiday to the West Coast. Exact
dates are not finalised, but the intention is to schedule to accommodate as many boats as possible (the more the merrier). The
draft plan is to sail together flotilla style for a one week voyage West. Many of us of course can not take a whole month off work
so we are thinking 2 weekends of flexible cruising (or the whole fortnight for lucky people) then coordinating for flotilla style
return. There are 3 boats signed up for this already, but imagine the craic if we have more!
Weather permitting, we are hoping to get as many boats as possible out for a tooter around the bay for what has become the
traditional Boxing Day and New Years Day sails (as opposed to sales), followed of course by some social interactions at a handy
hostelry. I will not be able to join on Boxing Day as I shall be visiting family, but Willie & co will definitely be out.
Now that we are in the depths of winter and very little happening on the water, would anyone fancy a bit of social by way of
keeping in touch and bringing some cheer? We don’t want to organise anything just yet until we have a feel for numbers, so can
I just put out a wee feeler for who’s up for what? Some suggestions e.g :
Burns Night
Medieval Banquet (Bothy Burghead)
Dinner and a quiz night
Please drop me an email if you fancy doing something (or all, or nothing), what your preferences are and any weekends Jan-Feb
when you can’t. I can then see what numbers we have and book us up accordingly. So just fire me a wee email. Ta!
In case I don’t see any of you before, I will take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
