We are pleased to announce the committee for 2024 is as follows –
Jon Skinner – Chairman
Chairman of The Boating Association since 2017.
I grew up boating, my family was based on the River Soar at Soar Boating Club.
We started with day boats, converted an old Boston fishing boat and my father then built his own boat! I’m based at Farndon these days and love to cruise up and down the Trent and Ouse. The trip across The Wash to Wells is always great fun too.
Out Boat ‘Tarka’ is the only one of its kind in the UK. She is a Norwegian Wikingboat built in 1980.
Give us a wave if you see us out there.
Owen Moody – Vice Chairman
Ray Rogers – Treasurer and BSSAC Officer
Frances Tuck – Merchandise
Richard Burford
Alan Gosling (& 2nd cheque signatory)
