Beginner
Current OSCR data says the club is open to anyone to join, including children and adults. The club's own Blogger site is now described as an old shop window and may contain out-of-date details, but its membership page says the club welcomes new members, that people do not need to own a boat or have much experience, and that newcomers can get a taste of sailing by crewing a Flying Fifteen.
Training· Unclear
The club's Blogger membership page says the club is not an RYA accredited training centre, but has organised training with visiting instructors, informal instruction for Picos and a seasonal Pico Week for juniors. Because the blog says some material may be out of date, I did not find enough current evidence to mark formal training or current RYA courses as available.
Taster· Unclear
The club's Blogger membership page says newcomers can get a taste of sailing by crewing a Flying Fifteen, but I did not find a current public taster session, open day, try-sailing date, or booking route. Expired or undated blog content should not be treated as current taster-session availability.

Suitability

Juniors, families, and accessibility

Juniors
Current OSCR data says the club is open to children and adults. The club's Blogger membership page describes children sailing in Flying Fifteens, larger boats and Picos, and says Pico Week is usually set aside for more formal junior training; treat the Pico Week detail as needing confirmation because the blog warns some content may be out of date.
Access· Unclear
I did not find current evidence describing step-free access, adapted sailing, accessible toilets, parking access, or support for specific access needs.

Costs

Costs, membership, and boats

Prices

A club Blogger charges page lists membership and mooring fees, but it says the rates followed a 2019 AGM increase for 2020 membership, and the blog home page warns some material may be out of date. I did not find clearly current membership, course, taster-session, boat-hire, or visitor prices.

Membership

OSCR confirms active SCIO status, 2024 annual return and activities including sailing dinghies, keelboats, cruising yachts, skiff and community use; directory evidence places the club at Ullapool.

Boat hire· Unclear
The club's Blogger membership page says members may use club-owned Picos, a Feva and Flying Fifteens subject to safety requirements, but I did not find current evidence of public boat hire or a hire booking route.
