Our club hosted an inter club event with ACRC members attending returning their invite last year.In cold blustery conditions 500m sprints were held in the Harbour with rows also around the red and green buoys. Club members supplied sandwiches and cakes with tea and coffee.A taxi service was also provided to and from the Arran ferry at Ardrossan for the Arran members.A

n enjoyable day was had by all.

Ten members of our club took part in the relay row from Perth Sailing club to Wormit. Eight skiffs took part

and although it was not a race Troon completed the 25 miles in first place.

 

Along with single scullers and canoes our club took part in a “Give it a Go” on the River Ayr. Students from Ayr Academy and The West of

Scotland University took part in a very successful demonstration that this river is suitable for this type of craft.

Our club has spent the last 6 months building a Wemyss skiff and on the 30th March we held a naming ceremony and and launch at the Troon Yacht Haven slipway.
