Situated in at the heart of the the Trossachs in central Scotland, Loch Venachar SC is undoubtedly one of Scotland's finest sailing clubs and only an hour away from Edinburgh and Glasgow less from Perth, it is located in some of the most beautiful scenery in Scotland and boasts superb facilities.

As a real family club, our philosophy is to make sailing available to all. Our racing credentials are well established and LVSC is a highly sought after venue on the Traveller circuit with an excellent reputation for race management and organisation.

And for those new to sailing LVSC has been an RYA Training Centre since 1995 and offers a wide range of RYA dinghy and powerboat courses..

Sailing is open to anyone, no matter what age or ability. You don't need to be able-bodied, or even a strong swimmer. Our sailability section seeks to raise awareness in the disability community of the tremendous benefits that sailing can provide and aims to help people with a disability get on the water at Loch Venachar.

Adults and Kids Mentoring Sessions for 2025

We have a new program of dates available for 2025. The sessions will be run by club members FOR CLUB MEMBERS and will give adults and kids alike time to get on the water and receive some pointers of how to improve from experienced sailors all with safety cover for peace of mind.

They are not coaching sessions and parents will be responsible for their children throughout the sessions and are expected to stay on site to offer assistance with launching and recovering and drinks/snacks. Adults it will be up to you to decided if you want to sail or not depending on your ability and confidence. We want this to be an inclusive environment where everybody feels like they can have time on the water in a non competitive atmosphere and make the most of what the club and the members can offer.

We are hoping to have some of our more experienced instructors along for some of the dates to be able to help out as well.

All of the sessions will be on Sunday mornings. This will allow time on the water in the morning to build confidence, work out skills and improve your sailing and will give you the opportunity to get more involved in the Sunday afternoon club races over the summer if you want to.

Contact us now for further information about the club.
