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.

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

Please contact Keith Roberts if you intend to sail.

Prizes:

The prizes will be better than ever this year, so put this open event in your diary now!
