About us

BoASC is a friendly sailing club just up river from Bradford on Avon in a beautiful setting. Since 1965, we have been gathering on this stretch of the Avon river and enjoying the competition & friendly rivalry that comes from racing on a Sunday afternoon.  Our Race Diary plus other meetings & events can be found in the 2024 Programme Tab.

WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING TO ATTRACT NEW MEMBERS FROM EXPERIENCED RACERS TO NOVICES – COME AND JOIN US AND HELP EXPAND OUR SPORT TO MORE PEOPLE IN WEST WILTS. 

We have a Clubhouse with Dinghy Park for Members Dinghies. We also have a range of Club Dinghies (RS Vision, Laser, Laser Pico, Topper, & Optimist) that are available to Club Members for a notional daily charge.

In the springtime, we offer an introductory 2-day Week-end “Try Sailing” course to get you started – this is specifically designed for those people looking to become members of the club early on in the season.

We have the following classes racing within the Club: Laser, Rooster 8.1, Solution, Solo, RS 200, RS Aero, RS Vision, Mirror, Laser Pico & Topper classes.

 

We have taken part in Barts Bash each year and raised over £1,000 for the Andrew Simpson Foundation.  BoASC is a double Bart’s Bash “Guinness Book of Records Race” Record holder:

      • The narrowest sailing area
      • Class Champion with the Yamaha Seahopper.
