The main activity of the Club is racing which takes place every weekend from mid April till October. Racing is either on a course round Club marks or on a course round islands. This variety suits the preferences of most of the keelboat sailors, however some keelboat sailors also enjoy cruising the waters.

The Keelboat Handicap Class consists of seventeen boats ranging from the nineteen foot Hunter Europa to Sadler 25. Given that the main activity of the Club is racing, all boats in the class are cruiser/racers and only such boats are accepted into the Club. As a guide, the maximum Portsmouth handicap number for cruiser/racers is 1170, and anyone wishing to join MUST have a Portsmouth Number for their vessel.

Loch Lomond is well suited for keelboat racing and cruising with open waters and many islands to explore amid magnificent scenery. Most of the islands have suitable anchorages to go ashore and explore the islands or have a picnic. Some keelboats cruise further up the Loch and even to Ardlui for an overnight stay. A range of social events also take place over the season.

The Club operates a system for launching and recovering keelboats and also for raising and lowering masts and there no lack of help in carrying out these activities. Members with a keelboat joining the Club will be able to rent a mooring and on becoming a Full Member will normally make arrangements with the moorings convenor for their own mooring to be laid. All moorings are professionally lifted and laid. During the winter period most keelboat owners lay their boat up in the Club grounds.
