The C.M.B.A. was set up in 1998 by Keith & Merle Jarrett, Rod & Hazel Champkin and others after being proposed by Rod & Keith at the BCMBR, Windermere in August that year

The intention of the association is to gather together enthusiasts of classic motor boats. In addition, enable members to run and display their boats.

The wealth of specialist knowledge within the club allows enthusiasts to help each other with restoration projects.

As of 2008, we have over 240 members most of whom own a classic craft of one kind or another. Owning a boat is not a prerequsiste for membership, in fact we encourage all with an interest in and enjoyment of classic boats.

We publish a magazine every quarter packed with interesting articles and club information. This includes a buy/sell/wanted page and members may advertise free of charge - photographs can be included.
