A History of Wanlip Sailing Club

Founded in the 1970's, Wanlip Sailing Club is set in farmland on an 11 acre lake, a safe place for family
boating and for learning how to sail, since you are never far from land.

The Club has been built up over the years by the efforts of many of the members. This has given the club a sense of friendship and ability to acheive results in whatever it attempts. This can be Project work to improve facilities, or sailing at other venues, or even managing the ever changing water management issues, such as Canadian Pond weed, flood or drought as can challenge us.

There is a clubhouse with a large room, kitchen bar, and male and female changing rooms. Access to the water is by 3 slipways, and there are two secure compounds for boats.
