“The Brentwood Model Yacht & Powerboat Club was founded on the 1st July 1988, with the main interest being model yachts. This was the time when the ‘One Metre’ yacht was in its infancy and was becoming popular in Britain as a good quality, competitive yacht. The ‘One Metre Class’ was then chosen as the ‘Club Yacht’, thus enabling competitions to take place throughout the season typically at least twice a month.
Membership was very limited at this time, so the Ace Powerboat Club members were invited to join together with the yachts, making the rent of the lake easier to afford and enabling the facilities to be used to their fullest. In the fullness of time ‘Scale’ modellers also joined the club and the membership became sectioned into Yacht, Power and Scale. Each section of the club has a Secretary who is responsible for planning and running of events. The club also has a Chairman, General Secretary and Treasurer who are responsible for the general administration of the club.”
