These Classic Boat Days are a great way to get your boat wet, enjoy the company of like minded boaties and chill out.
Make sure you note the dates in your WBASA calendar and get along. They are also a great way to test your boat out, get some advice about anything you need and of course check out the other boats.

Support to launch and retrieve your boat, getting a tow if needed (yes, boats do breakdown) and best of all the opportunity to get your boat’s photo in the WBASA calendar are all good reasons to join in!
