Deviot Sailing Club is based on the beautiful Tamar River Estuary, about half way between Launceston and Low Head. The clubrooms are situated on the western shore of the river just under 2 nautical miles south of the Batman Bridge.
Club days are most Saturdays, from October through to late April. Deviot is an ideal location for sailing with reliable winds, a wide expanse of water, and the interest of some interesting tidal patterns.

Classes supported at Deviot
Deviot supports a range of classes from Sabots through to Trailable and Keel Boats. The aim is to provide healthy competition in a selection of classes suitable for a range of skills. Dinghy Classes currently active at Deviot are:
- Sabot
All other classes and keel boats / trailable yachts are welcome. Deviot Sailing Club prides itself on being a sailing club, if it sails then you are welcome. For those who like the challenge of racing against the clock or each other the club has a comprehensive race scoring system that judges all boats against their yardstick. The system further has a skipper handicap system that provides close competition throughout the season.
Prizes are awarded at the end of the season for Seasonal Championship and some individual races for both yardstick and skipper handicap scoring.

The Lauderdale Yacht Club
History
The Lauderdale Yacht club was originally a group of sailors casually sailing out of Frederick Henry bay with no clubhouse or any kind of facilities. The first races were held in 1977. After a lot of negotiation with the Clarence City Council it was agreed that current location at Roaches beach would be used.
In 1981 the cobra national titles were held at the Lauderdale yacht Club, with close to 60 starters and the only real structure on the grounds being a large "dolls house" It was decided to start building. Construction started in 1981 and was completed in 1983. Alan Gardner was the commodore at the time and did much of the engineering and organisation.
Over the years the LYC has played host to many national and state title events, including cobra,
moth, nacra and paper tiger national championships.
Today
The club provides sailing training to youth and adults. We have a fleet of sabots and lasers that are sailed on Sunday mornings. Juniors start around the age of 6 years depending on how mature they have become.
The LYC organises racing for catamarans and any off the beach class that wish to sail with the club. In the past we have enjoyed sailing with the b14 skiffs, moths, sharpies, and a host of other sailing craft.
Recently the Australian paper tiger nationals were held at the LYC and were a very well-polished event that attracted a lot of attention from many local and national sailors.
Aiming to be a friendly and community orientated the atmosphere is warm and welcoming
The LYC is affiliated with Yachting Tasmania which allows our member to compete at all levels of the sport.
