‘Peel Traditional Boat Weekend’ was first run in 1991 and on the basis that 'if it ain't broke don't fix it' the format will be much the same as in previous years.

It is a relaxed event with the focus very much on the boats, the people, and the sea.

Its time to catch up with friends old and new, admire all those beautiful boats or try to build a dinghy from scratch.

As always the event is free to boats which meet the qualifying criteria and of course, crews are not forgotten.

We have become known for the traditional Manx hospitality we provide. This includes kippers for breakfast, a commemorative gift for each boat, and "time enough" to sit and chat.

We hope that we can welcome YOU to Peel. Join us and we can assure you of the best of times in great company….
