The Clyde Etchells philosophy of having good boats from 10 to 25 years old (the 2012 Sydney Worlds were won by a 20 year old boat) means that owners or syndicates can join this growing fleet for a modest investment. That the boats are all kept on swinging moorings at Royal Gourock Yacht Club are served by two launches means that boats are accessible and the class consensus on sail wardrobes means running costs are modest.
Being part of Clyde Etchells is not just about great racing in stimulating boats but is about having fun on the water whilst honing boat handling skills and enjoying good company ashore so it is no surprise that an increasing number of sailors are joining us.
Many thanks to Marc Turner for supplying photography.
