The Boat Buying Programme

The boat buying programme estimates our upcoming capital purchases to give us an annual fund-raising target for new equipment. Replacement is not necessarily like-for-like, the current captain would assess club needs and boathouse space and recommend purchases to the committee accordingly.

Current Annual Fund-Raising Target £7,461
