No Water Means No Sailing at Burwain
As you may know, the lake is now unsuitable
for adult racing/sailing. East Lancs SC (Rishton) is in
the same postion. The good news is Burwain members will
be made very welcome at Yorkshire Dales Sailing Club at
Grimwith near Grassington
They have recently completed a £600,000
clubhouse and it is superb. Winds are good and steady -
not fluky like at Burwain!
There is NO COST to Burwain members and you
can take your boat there whenever you wish. YDSC is about
20 minutes drive north of Skipton, so about 45 minutes from
Burwain
Racing is on Sundays starting at 11.30 - so
a full days sailing and worth the journey. There is also
racing on Wednesday evenings for those who can make it whilst
on Saturdays its cruising/training (similar to Friday evening
at Burwain)
For further details please phone Peter Norcliffe

Come and join us - there are usually 30+ boats
out on Sundays

Two Burwain teams recently entered the junior

with the B team made up of Alex, Tom, James, and Simon finishing
3rd overall. The younger A team also performed very well
