The Mutual Model Boat Society is a warm, friendly and helpful group of enthusiasts. Our aims are: - To promote all aspects of model boating and to encourage people to take up the hobby, especially the younger generation. Our members' models cover a wide range of styles from steam driven warships and launches to airscrew-driven 'fun' craft.
The Mutual Model Boat Society is devoted to promoting the designing, building, racing, and preservation of all model Boats of all sizes and shapes. We pursue these goals by recognizing all models-full spec, or by design-, and Promoting model boating in general. Any operating model boat enthusiast will benefit by joining the Mutual Model Boat Society and meeting others with the same interests.
Sailing times
We meet every Sunday morning from 9:00 am, 52 weeks a year, to sail, chat, share ideas and information and have a 'brew' and a 'natter'. The mill is a business centre so sailing is not available at any other time. Visitors are welcome every Sunday.
The pond
Our water is a mill lodge situated in the grounds of Mutual Mills. The surroundings tend to leave sailing vessels in the 'Doldrums' but it does mean we have relatively calm water for everyone else. Unfortunately IC powered craft are not permitted.
Location and Facilities
Mutual Mills, Aspinall Street, Heywood, Lancashire is just a five minute drive from the M66. From Heywood town centre, head towards Rochdale on Rochdale Road East, Aspinall Street is on the left just past the garage - look for the sign for Crimble Croft Community Centre. Tea, toast and toilets are available in Crimble Croft from approx 11:00 am. Parking is available within the grounds and, if you're early enough, right up to the water's edge.
If you are familiar with model boating, feel free to start perusing. See What's New on the site. If you are new to model boating, you can begin with the Getting Started section. There will you find an organized description of what is contained in our site. We also offer you a link to a computerized Site Translation.
Welcome to a hobby sport that you can enjoy for a lifetime with family and friends, all over the World.
