Thames Sailing Barge Matches.

Blackwater Sailing Barge Match Association


The B.S.B.M.A. was founded in 1962 with the object of encouraging enthusiasts to race, care for, and preserve, the remaining barges for as long as possible.

The expenses of organising the Match are largely defrayed as Friends subscriptions, and by donations.

Membership of the Association entitles members to join in any social activity arranged, reserve seats on craft following the Match and take part in the Annual Film Show.

A newsletter is sent regularly to all members.

Application to become a Friend of the Blackwater Barge Match, should be made to:
