Details:

Bolton Sailing Club is located at Belmont Village, a few miles north of Bolton (near Manchester).
Belmont reservoir is approximately 3/4 mile long, 620ft above sea level, and surrounded by picturesque countryside.
Consequently, there is rarely a lack of wind.
In fact, the forecast is for blue skies, warm sunshine and nice force 4-5 northerly wind.

We will again be sharing the water with the Lightning Open, with Supernovas starting first.
Let's see if we can beat last year's total of 26 Supernovas !

Refreshments will be available from the galley for breakfast and lunch.
The bar will be open after sailing.

There is space to camp at the club.
