The Social Boat Angling Forum has eight boats at present. It is not an angling club, but merely a group of boat owners who share a common interest in boating and angling as well as a passion for the sport and the lifestyle it promotes. This group of good-natured and easy going anglers take pleasure in the company of like-minded boat owners and fishermen, without the politics and regulations generally associated with club sports. There are no membership fees or formalities involved.
