Delph Sailing Club Bolton

Delph Sailing Club Bolton Delph Sailing club is the North Wests friendliest sailing club. The bar opens once the last boat is off the water. We look forward to meeting you soon.

We offer competitive racing, social sailing and are a recognised RYA training centre and Pathway club. Delph Sailing Club is a family friendly sailing club set between Egerton and Belmont on the outskirts of Bolton, with easy access from the surrounding towns of Chorley, Preston, Blackburn, Manchester and beyond. Whether you are a complete novice or someone returning to sailing after a break, we can help give you the confidence to get out on the water and start enjoying sailing as a social or competitive pursuit. With a competitive racing series running twice weekly from Easter to New Years day and social sailing on Friday evenings, we have something to offer all levels of sailors. If you are looking for formal qualifications, we run RYA training on many Saturdays throughout the season and most courses are included as part of your membership fees. Our clubhouse enjoys stunning Vistas over the rolling countryside towards Manchester and with Bank Top b**r in the Bar and Carrs Pasties in the Galley it is a great place to relax after a good days sailing. Our regular sailors range in age from 5 to 80+ often with many generations of the same family racing with each other, so sailing really is the hobby that the entire family can enjoy together. The club also hosts numerous social events for families and friends throughout the year and of course a Christmas party for the cadets. If you would like to see what we are all about, please pop on down any time we are sailing Delph Diary and speak to the members about how you can join our fantastic club. Alternative drop us an email and we will see what we can do to help give you a taste of sailing at Delph - Contact Us for more info.

A great 4 days at Abersoch for the Miracle Dinghy Class Association national championship in which 3 Delph boats took part

Wayne Atherton and Angela Sweeney finished 2nd and might have won race 9 if it hadn't been abandoned.

Ian and Lilly Brown won the Bronze Fleet and were the highest placed parent and child but the stars of this week were surely Millie and Annabel Hayfield who were getting better and better with every race.

They finished 2nd in the bronze fleet and Millie won the highest place youth helm whilst Annabel won the highest placed junior crew.

Delph also had the most boats (3) and we are looking to come back to Abersoch in 2-3 years as part of dinghy week.

A massive thanks to everyone who attended our fundraiser for Lancashire Youth Sailing last night with double Olympic Medallist Stuart Bithell and entrepreneur Michael Wilson who has already given this incredible organisation a generous amount of financial support.

Through ticket sales, a duck naming game and a raffle, we have raised well over a thousand pounds so far for LYS .

If you haven't had a chance to help out yet, the Crowdfunder is scheduled to close this weekend.
