Latest Happenings ....
Coronavirus update - Our booking system and conditions allow 3 shifts of up to 14 sailors (was 10) at a time. You can still only enter the buildings to use toilets and access any kit you store there. There are no showers, changing, or cooking facilities until further notice. Use of communal club kit can now be permitted, but it must then be tagged and left unused for 4 days. To guard against legionella risk we have removed 1 of 3 cold water tanks and are cleaning and disinfecting the hot and cold water systems. You may notice some disruption to supply while this work is going on. Hot water taps remain taped off. Changing rooms will now remain closed until at least mid-August due to virus transmission rates in and around Greater Manchester. We will review this as things change.
3 played away at Fleetwood - read an account here.
Water level - is now just 1.6m below full and that's before the heavy rain of 27th July. It's some compensation for a wet June and July!
Tridem smashes world speed record! On 18th July a French team clocked an astonishing 67.17 knots (77 mph). See Windsurf magazine and YouTube. We have one hanging in the clubhouse. It's never been quite so quick, but we can always give it another try ....?!
5th July was wild and windy - see some action photos of Dave Monks here and Dave Martin here .
Foiling has arrived at Watergrove! Click here for more about Jennie Roberts and some photos.

Bathing Water results - see here if you want to know whether the water at the coastal location you plan to visit is clean or not. Bear in mind though that testing for bathing waters is only carried out during the Summer months, so the water may be a little worse when we visit these places. Risk of pollution is highest after heavy rain. That's due to sewer overflows - you've been informed!
First Aid made easy - why not load the British Red Cross's First Aid app on your mobile phone? It gives simple step by step instructions for different injuries and symptoms. You can use it to learn in advance of an incident and/or guide you if you have to deal with one. Be prepared - get the app .
