WMYC Crane-Out 2026

Due to Saturday high winds, craning-out is now planned for SUNDAY October 11th. If you wish to use the crane and have not yet put your name on the list in the clubhouse, please do so as soon as possible.
We have essential work to be carried out at the club prior to craning out. We must remove a substantial amount of silt from berths 1 and 2 so there will be sufficient depth of water to bring boats in for lifting out. We plan to wash out the berths next Saturday and Sunday afternoons, 26th and 27th September. Volunteers will be needed to help, so please come along if you can spare some time.

River Wyre Safety Group, May 2021

This group has regular meetings, involving Wyre Borough Council, the police, coastguard and other interested stakeholders, including our club. The group aims to control irresponsible and potentially dangerous use of craft on the river, mostly involving excessive speed. If any club member witnesses any incidents of this nature, please do let us know, and we can feed the information back to the group.

Club house reopening, due June 21ST 2021

Club House Re-opening

We hope to be able to re-open the clubhouse on June 21st, which is the date on the government’s roadmap when lockdown restrictions are planned to be lifted. It has been suggested that we could refresh the interior of the clubhouse ready for the re-opening. If you have any ideas for colour schemes or improvements which we could achieve by that date, please let us know. Also, if any member can offer assistance, advice or skills in the areas of furnishing, flooring and decoration, please get in touch.

CRANE IN, due may 27th, 2021

Just a reminder that our provisional date for craning in this year is Thursday 27th May. Will any member wishing to use the crane please let us know ASAP, if you haven’t already done so. Please also take note that the majority of the yard will be taped off on the day, and not accessible for activities not connected with craning. The yard will be a hard-hat area during craning. Food and refreshment will be provided by a Covide-19 compliant team operating from in the club house. Note that club house is still out of bounds for general navigation, and the toilet round the back remains uni-sex for the time being.
