Entry Fees

And we wonder why no one travels anymore.

Considering what your boat costs, a set of decent rags, road trailer, fuel, etc etc. I think £39 is cheap.
This discussion comes up regularly but its less than a meal for two in the local pub.

Try taking your child's tera to Grafham.
One of the issues with some big reservoir clubs are the boat fees payable to the landlords.
This does protect the clubs from a bewl water scenario. But means bringing a boat in is more expensive.
It's not easy to get into Rutland for an open meeting, so the rates can't be that uncompetitive.
As for accommodation, bunk rooms are available12-14 pppn, and cheap camping on the field opposite the club entrance.

This is not part of the club, as the lease prohibits camping on site, but you are allowed to use the club loos as long as you are at an event.

Hope that helps.

if you book in soon, you can do 9 days at Bassenthwaite week for £100...

Perhaps a little expensive compared to other 2 day opens, but I suspect running Rutland costs a little more than most clubs. However,  compared to most other sports its an utter bargain. And still we complain..
