Where to take my boat?

Recommended Posts

Ecclesfield has a nice pond that you could take it to maybe?

e

There are too many steps to climb at Ecclesfield Dam. They are also very narrow.

Hi, I have just restored a Brealey Smith Buccaneer Jet boat, late 60's early 70's, great little boat, if only I could use it, I am finding it difficult to find anywhere to use it. Its a wave runner type small PWC and can travel upto 30 knots. Any suggestions folks :hihi:

 

Hi

Is it a model or full size boat?

Can you get it in the water at Underbank reservoir at Stocksbridge?

 

They have an water activity centre there so it might be possible?

There's no slipway at torksey

There is a slipway at Torksey. It is at The Elms retirement complex but I don't know if it is for public use. They let me put my boat in some years ago. Remember Torksey is on the canal and there is a 4 MPH speed limit on it.

You cannot put a boat on the canal without an inland waterways boat licence and insurance.

Jet boat is no good on a canal anyway

 

A couple of hours drive but a decent place to open it up and have some fun is Billabong at Brandesburton (East Yorkshire)

Just an honest question, is it a small model boat, or a sit in full size craft.
