Orkney Yole Association SCIO

About

It is set up to transfer skills and knowledge around maintaining and sailing and constructing Orkney yoles, making known their traditional uses and promoting their use as sailing vessels. It does this through arranging taster sessions in the yoles for the local P7 primary school children and for local adults, organising week night sailing during the summer for yoles and participating in local regattas, hosting social evenings over the winter with a yole theme, selling its book 'The Orkney Yole' and outreach activities such as attendance at Portsoy traditiional boat festival.
