Club Calendar 2024

The club runs a provisional sailing and paddling programme which all members are welcome to participate in. Please be aware that all events by their nature are weather dependent and the programme may change at short notice. Please do use the members Facebook group to look out for weekly updates and other relevant information.

Other ad-hoc events may be added due to demand and again these will be advertised on the members Facebook group.

All members are welcome to join sailing and paddling activities or use the club as normal during any of these sessions. Paddlers should in general try to avoid sailing craft especially beginners and the race course which will be marked on the map on the clubhouse wall. Sailors should try to keep clear of paddlers as all water users are responsible to avoid collisions.

Sailing will comprise elements of training and encourage you to practise manoeuvres and sail trim and support and advice on rigging and setting up club boats or your own craft. We also include a racing program, with longer, more challenging courses to satisfy more experienced sailors although all members may join in.

On the listed sailing and paddling days there will be safety cover for all craft on the water.

Thursday evening Paddle Club continues throughout the season, please check times and details on the members Facebook group.

When No activity is listed:

  • The lake is open only during daylight hours for members to launch.
  • When there is no formal safety cover members need to follow the lone activity guidelines set out in the handbook.
  • Members are encouraged to pair up with a buddy system.
  • Members should be aware of their ability to handle their craft in the prevailing weather conditions and are responsible for the safety of their craft and crew and any guests.
