January is a time for the legal profession’s sailors to check if their oilskins still fit them ahead of a busy 2026 season for the Law Society Yacht Club. Planned events this year include a cross-channel sail, a cruise in the Hebrides – and competing again in the classic Round the Island race in July. Several berths are still available: no qualifications (apart from a sense of humour) are required. 

The club’s annual general meeting will take place online on 27 January. 

Membership of the Law Society Yacht Club is open to boaters of all types and levels of ability with a connection to the solicitors’ profession. For more information, see: lawsocyc.org.uk.
