Introduction
Huddersfield
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.
We welcome new members who wish to take up
sailing for the first time and provide
informal coaching to club members at all
levels of proficiency. Anyone interested in
sailing who wishes to find out more about the
sport is assured a warm welcome at the club
any weekend afternoon. Membership forms are
available at the club and from the Membership
page.
