Montrose sailing club is situated in Esk Road, Montrose, Angus. We sail in Montrose Basin which means the times you can go sailing depend on when the tide comes in. A little bit of history The Montrose Sailing club was formed on the 5th May 1964 when a public meeting was held in the Park Hotel for those interested in the formation of a club to sail on the Basin. Twenty three people attended this meeting and a club was formed and office bearers and committee elected. At the fist committee meeting it was agreed that the club recommended dinghies would be Enterprise , GP14, Graduate and Heron. Over the years the original dinghy park has increased in size and the clubhouse has changed from the original small wooden shed to a prefabricated concrete building (acquired from Glaxo) with changing rooms etc. added later on The club nowadays The club has several boats that are available to use at a small charge. These boats are of various sizes, from an Oppy (childs solo craft) upto a 2 man GP14 The complete fleet is : 1 x Oppy 2 x Laser Radials 1 x Graduate, which was donated by the family of a past long term member 1 x GP14 To gain access to these boats you are required to be a member of the club (for insurance purposes).
