Update on the jetty replacement project (added 09/04/24)
New foundation piles for the replacement jetty walkway are in place, however, the poor weather and high water level has halted the construction work resulting in a delay to the start of this year’s season. When the water level drops the work will continue and, weather permitting, the walkway will be available for use at the beginning of May. Hopefully by then the weather will have improved and the water temperature increased.
​
New boat for the 2024 season (added 13/03/24)
The boat is one of the most important assets the club has and for the 2024 season we will take delivery of a new Ski Nautique 200. Looking forward to seeing everyone skiing behind this beauty.

Repairs to the jetty walkway (added 13/03/24)
The existing jetty is made of wood and the years, water and weather have taken their toll on the structure. During this winter it sustained serious damage rendering it unrepairable. Work has commenced to replace the walkway with a steel frame and GRP surface. This is a significant financial investment and we have applied to several organisations for grant funding to help with the cost.
