Burntisland Sailing Club
Whats New
Burntisland Sailing Club is one of the main sailing clubs on the Firth of Forth in Scotland.

The next event are the Mazzoni and Costello races on Sunday 19th July. The Mazzoni starts at Port Edgar at 10am  and the Cosyello at Burntisland at 11am. The finish for both races will be at Burntisland.

Entry form is on the FYCA website.

 

The Club's first cruise of the year saw six boats make the trip up through the bridges to Port Edgar Marina.
The day started warm, overcast with a 10 knot breeze. The sun started to break through as we approached Inchmickerry but the wind steadily increased to 20 knots from the west- double the forecast. The fleet coped well and after a brisk sail they arrived at Port Edgar. By then the sea was choppy with the wind over tide and the wind was up a knot or two.
One or two minor mishaps for the less experienced docking but a good steep learning curve!
After picnics and snacks at the Marina cafe we all set sail for the return journey, with the tide again. Some lovely views of Inch Colm and Cramond Island were enjoyed.
The sail back took half the time and the boats were all tied up by 4.00p.m.
Some photographs will be available from Andy and Len on the web and in the clubhouse.
The next cruise will be to Fisherrow and dates and tides will be published soon.
