The club has a
busy social and cruising calander, plus moorings, dinghy compound,
workshop and clubhouse on the Wey navigation. We have ten sturdy and
stable rowing boats that can seat up to five people.
..
Boats are provided
for hire, with one set of oars, and lifejackets are available if you
need them. A choice of routes on the Wey Navigation can take you as
far as Pyrford Lock, by the Anchor pub, or to New Haw Lock, or to
Lock 1 at Woodham on the Basingstoke Canal. The club is open for boat
hire on Satur-days, Sundays, and public holidays starting at the Easter
weekend, through until the final weekend of September.
The first boat
out is at 10am, and all boats must be back by 6pm. Advance booking
for one or two boats is not necessary. The cost is £8 per hour
per boat (seats five). A £20 returnable deposit also ap-plies.
If you have a group of people wanting to hire several boats, special
group rates apply, and you should book in advance. If required, boats
for groups can be supplied during the week by arrange-ment beforehand.
