Glenridding Sailing Center is open and newcomers are welcome.

Book ahead by email with at info@glenriddingsailingcentre.co.uk.  As John and others know GSC can be a little slow to reply but will do eventually.

I plan to arrive early Friday morning and be on the water as soon as possible.  I look forward to seeing everyone, safely distanced, 10th-12th July.

Latest (Tuesday 7th) from GSC:     

Camping on boats is permissible on water or land and camper-vans are permitted but book with GSC (Glenridding Sailing Centre) first.

One Bayraider has arrived already.

BBC Weather forecast for Patterdale for Saturday and Sunday is 10-12 mph westerlies, 5% probability showers and 13-15C.  Perfect! Decent sailing and cool enough to deter crowds.

A prospective buyer would like to see a BRe on Saturday - could someone show him an example?
