Seavets was formed in 1984 to promote windsurfing
as an activity, convinced that an active life in middle age is most
likely to lead to a healthier and so happier old age. Seavets has
members from all over mainland Britain.
- Promotes responsible and sociable windsurfing for the "not
so young". Membership is open to those over 35 years old.
- Organises racing and recreational events for members and encourages
other organisers of windsurfing events to include categories and
to award prizes for the "not so young".
- Supports the registered charity Research Into Ageing.
- Encourages members to become qualified through Royal Yachting
Association approved courses.
From the beginning the club has been closely
linked with the medical research charity Research
Into Ageing. Nearly £3,000 was raised by Seavets for the charity
in 2005 and more than £57,000 has been raised since 1986. Seavets
is affiliated to the Royal Yachting Association.
