BOOM Sailing

BOOM Sail Power and Race Training has been set up by former member Cris Miles as a fully RYA accredited sailing school based in Conwy, N Wales. Using a 40' Beneteau First they also have the distinction of running the fastest training boat in Wales (and probably Scotland!).
Three Rivers Gin

Small Batch Dry Gin and the Gin Experience make Manchester Three Rivers Gin and great place to check out. We'd like to thank them for their help on our Gin Night.

Join the club

It's easy to join - just fill out this online form. You don't need a boat straightaway. Borrow a club boat, or crew for another member. When you are ready to buy a boat it doesn't need to cost an arm and a leg, there are lots of second-hand bargains to be had.

If you've walked around the lake and often fancied yourself bobbing about in one of the boats then what are you waiting for - join today and you'll be sailing by the weekend.
