Meikle T&C's are on this page.
The Clubhouse is closed except to those who need access to undertake their duties or obtain the keys for Meikle; anyone entering the building for these purposes should follow the C-19 guidelines posted on the front door.
Members intending to sail or visit the Club to check on their boat should read the guidance issued by RYA Scotland on 7 January 2021 first: RYAS Boating Guidance.
