Lloyd’s Yacht Club (LLYC) began much like Lloyd’s itself, with five individual members of Lloyd’s sailing an informal race to Cherbourg, with the idea of forming a club being discussed over dinner on their arrival. In 1938, the club was officially formed, with membership restricted to Members of Lloyd’s and those who had a ticket to work in the room. Today, club members come from across the financial services industries, many of whom join the club in order to build contacts within the community and to have fun on the water during club weekends on Lutine - food and drink is still prevalent during these weekends! In addition to sailing Lutine, Club membership offers many events, including the Lineslip regatta, Lutine Bell race, Finn trophy, Fastnet, Swan Europeans and many more. The monthly newsletter provides information about these and social events such as the monthly drinks at the Little Ship Club, the Senior Members lunch and the Annual Dinner Dance. Other benefits are available within the membership section. If you are interested in becoming a member then see the membership section on the web-site.
