| Stewartby Water Sports Club is located in a disused brick pit close by the
M1 in Bedfordshire. The lake is 240 acres approximately divided into two sections
(half sailing and half power boats) but in the winter
it is opened all up for our sailing event. There are a fleet of 7-8 Dart 15s at
the club led by Graham Shrimpton. The Club is very
friendly and they have a tradition of awarding every competitor in the
Winter Traveller event with a prize. The local fleet specialize in Sprinting
but generally both formats are sailed for the open meeting.
To get there from the North, West or South take the M1 to junction 13 and travel in the Bedford direction on the A421 for about 3 miles. The Lake is situated on the right (South) side of the A421 just hidden from view with bushes,etc. Turn right where sign posted. The entrance to the club is half a mile down the side road on the right. From the A1 and Bedford direction, head for Kempston and take the A421 West in the direction of the M1 and Woburn. Look for Stewartby on your left but DO NOT follow the first left sign to Stewartby but take the second left which is the direct route to the sailing club. For more details call:
