The Gareloch One Design Class was designed and built by McGruer’s yard in 1924 at Clynder. There were 16 of these beautiful and classically profiled 24 foot yachts built. And, 100 years on, every one of them has survived, with all boats based on the Gareloch, and with racing taking place every Tuesday evening and Sunday afternoon throughout the sailing season.
The people who sail these boats are friendly and very welcoming, and we encourage anyone with an interest in sailing, who also want to experience the joy of sailing in the Gareloch – our beautiful Clyde sea-loch, surrounded by hills – to come along and get involved.
If you would like to get involved, or come along for a sail, just get in touch with John Campbell or Charles Darley (see contact details).
