Always fancied joining a boating club but not sure your sea legs would stand up to it? Well now you can thanks to The Yorkshire On-Land Boating Club as their boat will not be leaving terra firma!
The Yorkshire On-Land Boating Club was created by the Pointed Arrow Theatre Company, and they are able to undertake their maiden voyage, HEAVE 2009, thanks to funding from Arts Council England. The 21 day sailing circuit will see them lauch off from the Seven Arts Centre in Leeds and then take the team of boat pushers through Bradford, up and across the Yorkshire Dales and then down from North to West Yorkshire finally landing back in Leeds.
A detailed itinerary is available on the Boating Club website so all you land lubbers out there be sure to ship out, show up and cheer the boat along its way!
