Delph reservoir was completed in 1924, to provide a 78-acre source of water for domestic/industrial use and to supply extra, cleaner water to improve the River Irwell via Delph Brook. The Sailing Club in Bolton was founded in 1962 when permission to sail on the water was granted.
Then grew a Scorpion Fleet (now defunct), Mirror Fleet (now defunct), a Laser Fleet, and more recently the Solos separated from the Handicap Fleet to have fleet status of their own.The Miracle Fleet evolved in a similar way, also RS200s. The Fast and Slow Handicap Fleets accommodate craft which has insufficient numbers for fleet status.
