Sounds interesting

It is a sad fact but very many yacht clubs are seeing falling numbers. There are just not the same numbers of people coming in to the sport. Sailing is not alone, there are golf clubs that used to have long waiting lists also with falling membership.

Whether it is time or money, who knows? I suspect time because my old cricket team who would field 3 teams struggles to get 1 x 11 together these days.

Spot on Chris, I wonder if some will be viable in not too many years, where opportunities exist to share now is the time to do it, appreciate rag&stick and petrol heads do just that at Oulton already and could see Hickling Sailing and Windsurfing clubs joining up perhaps. Of course a clubhouse and premises isn’t always necessary, nor indeed your own boat even. Think outside the boat!
