North East England

There were 41 members in the North East Area before it was split into two areas.

At the 2003 AGM (November 2003) two members volunteered to take on the role
of co-ordinators for this area following the resignation of their predecessor.
They have chosen to split the area into a new North East Region and the East Midlands Region.
These two regions will be established over the next few months. For the present details are:

North East Region
This North East region will be the Tidal Trent from Torksey to Trent Falls, the River Humber, the Yorkshire Ouse and basically all waterways north of Torksey including the Calder and Hebble Navigation and the Leeds Liverpool canal to Foulridge tunnel. As at July 2004 the North East Region had 35 members
The first North East co-ordinator is Mike Rheinberg who, with his wife Linda and Obi (their rescued dog), cruises in Matt 1 their Seamaster 25.
Matt 1 is affectionately known as Matti. Matti is moored at Long Sandall Lock on the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation.
Mike and Linda joined the club in 1997 and have been regular contributors to the Newsletter / Magazine over the years.
