Welcome to

The Westray Sailing Club website.

The club started out as the Westray Sailing Club (and Papay residents could also be members). Throughout the years it was also known as the Westray & Papay Sailing Club and the Westray Yachting Club.

We have in our possession the original minute book, which records the proceedings of the meetings since 1925. The club has being going strong since then, although it stopped twice in its history, once out of respect for the Gairy Boat Disaster in 1929 and again for World War II. 

Sailing nights are Tuesday and Thursday, meeting at the harbour at 6:30pm with sailing starting at 7:00pm prompt. If you want to come and sail with your own boat, or want any information, please phone the Secretary Sam Harcus on 01857 677 860.

We have published a book to record the history of the Westray Regatta and would be grateful for any other information or photos you may have.

If you would like to buy a copy, we hope to have the facility to pay online some time in the future.  In the meantime please email us and we will contact you regarding payment. The cost is £10.00 including post and packing.
