SAILING FACILITIES
 BMBS owns it's sailing water at Carnaby Lake, a 90 x 80 metre man made lake which is available for sailing all year round. We have a membership of over 150 who participate in most model boating activities, these range through scale electric, steam, yachting, fast electric and IC power which includes a multiracing section. The Society is affiliated to the Model Powerboat Association and Model Yachting association which enables members to compete at other clubs regattas in addition to our own club and open events.

Carnaby Lake is well equipped with excellent facilities, these include on site parking adjacent to the lake, a clubhouse with mains water and cooking facilities, flush toilets, a central concrete landing stage with raised racing podium for power boaters and yachtsmen, with permanent 'M' and 'oval' courses. A second smaller concrete landing area with a good sized harbour and semi permanent course for exclusive use by scale sailors. All the above facilities are accessible by disabled people. A row boat and chest waders are also available to enable the rescue of wayward models.

Club nights are held every 1st Wednesday of the month at Broadacres, Kingsgate, Bridlington. As well as normal club business, club nights include auctions and demonstrations.

Please e-mail me if you have any problems with any part of this website.
