The RYAYTC powered by the RORC Rating Office is a new initiative to promote participation in racing by cruising yachts and cruiser-racers. The objective is to provide a simple rating assessment so that skippers of any skill level may feel encouraged to race their boats in club events and port regattas.
This is a link to the YTC page with application form and more details - here or contact the Sailing Secretary for more information sailingsecretary@ruyc.co.uk

A relaxed informal meeting reflecting the ethos of those 'cruising minded' persons present was enjoyed by just under 20 attendees.

RUYC 150-Year Celebrations – London-based Function for Outport Associates
The Club has provisionally agreed with the Royal Thames Yacht Club to hold a function on either Thursday 23rd or Friday 24th June 2016 at which Outport Associates can gather to celebrate the 150th Anniversary of the formation of Royal Ulster Yacht Club. This would probably be for Lunch on whichever date shows the greatest response, but Dinner might also be considered.
Congratulations to Club Member Chris Hawthorne and the crew of Derry-Lodonderry-Doire who have finished Leg 3 of the Clipper Race - Cape Town to Albany. They crossed the finish line at 1732 hours local yesterday in second place.
