The RYA has been collecting recreational boating information since 2004, to gain a picture of the areas most utilised for general boating, racing and passage-making in the UK, and the distribution of clubs, training centres and marinas. This helps the RYA to understand which areas are most important to the sport and our members so that we can work to protect them. The information gathered also effectively demonstrates the relative density of sailing activity around the UK. The first dataset was released in 2005, with updates in 2008 and 2012. A new version with substantial changes to the data format was released in 2016. INFORMATION WARNING: NRWs licence expires in Feb 2021 and the source data will no longer be available for re-use after this date unless the licence is renewed. NRW are permitted to continue to use all derived products created during the licence period.
