(Box containing- sign up for The Boating Association monthly newsletter) The Boating Association was set up 60 years ago to promote co-operation and comradeship between all river users and all associated waterways, to ensure the extension, development and improvement of these waterways and of their facilities and amenities so as to make the waterways safer and more pleasant. The Boating Association represents the collective individual interests of all Members in all matters relating to boating and the use of the waterways.

An urgent appeal from the Boat Safety Scheme 27th Jan 2010
An urgent appeal has gone out to boaters from the manufacturers of Belling, Flavel, Leisure and New World cookers - act now to avoid the risk of potentially fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

The Boating Association , in partnership with NABO and the Commercial Boat Operators Association, has had a commitment from BW to make the Skippers guidance leaflets for the River Trent and the Aire & Calder Navigation available for free at relevant locks and BW Offices. If you have difficulty finding them please contact 01636 704481 in the East Midlands (all the Trent except Keadby) or 0113 281 6860 in Yorkshire.

Boaters intending to use these navigations are strongly recommended to collect a copy before they set out on these waters, and, in the case of the Trent, to obtain a copy of the TBA's Sisson's Trent & Ouse Tidal Charts.

If you want the maximum time to prepare, no need to fear the unknown - get genned up!
Happy cruising .
