It is with great sadness the Bassenthwaite Sailing Club Council have made the very difficult decision to cancel Bass Week 2020.

Whilst this is incredibly disappointing for the club, its members and our many loyal visitors, we feel that this is the only action available to us and is the responsible thing to do in the current circumstances. We look forward to Bass Week 2021 and what a celebration that event should be.

The dates for Bass Week 2021 are 31st July to 8th August.
