Objectives

When the Star Craft Owners' Club was founded in 1993, the founders had in mind the following objectives:

To form an Association of all Bates Star Craft and their owners (present and past) and other interested parties, and to compile a register of all surviving Star Craft and their locations.
To recognise the quality of the vessels, all of which were built prior to 1976, and to perpetuate their image by maintenance of that standard.
To draw on the experience and knowledge of members for the benefit of all.
To develop a spirit of good fellowship among members which would be enhanced by the presence of Star Craft at leading events on the Thames and elsewhere.
