I am a member of both the Chew Valley Lake Sailing Club (CVLSC) and the Chew Valley Lake Association of Disabled Sailors (CLADS).

I sail most Saturdays throughout the summer down at CVLSC (April until October).

My favourite boat is my Topper, which I have great fun sailing (and capsizing). I've entered a few competions and come round about last!!! But it is all good fun.

The Topper is a really good boat to lean to sail and race; it is easy to rig and requires very little maintenance. Because the Topper made from injection molded polypropylene it is very light and small enough to transport on a roof rack of an average sized family car. I have transported my Topper on a 2 door Ford Focus, without any problems.
