Sailing
Club
is
a
friendly
family-orientated
club
based
at
Boshaw
Whams
Reservoir
1.5
miles
south
of
Holmfirth
in
West
                          Yorkshire. Established in 1958 it has a large
                          Clubhouse with a spacious observation lounge,
                          kitchen and changing rooms. There is ample
                          boat and car parking space and easy access to
                          the water. 
                       
                        
                      
                      The
club's
                          main organised activity is fleet and handicap
                          racing  which takes place on Saturday and
                          Sunday afternoons from March to November and
                          Wednesday evenings in summer. The relatively
                          small water rewards excellent boat handling
                          skills and encourages close tactical racing.
                          It also provides an ideal venue for people of
                          all ages and abilities, including families and
                          children, to learn to sail.  
                       
                        
                      
                      The
                          most popular classes of boat sailed are Laser, Heron,
                          Aero, Topper,
                          Byte, and Optimist.
                          The club also owns a number of boats suitable
                          for beginners, which members may hire at very
                          reasonable rates.
