Links
we like to share with you

Other Clubs and Associations, Pages of our Members, Museums and Magazines, Paddling Resources, Other stuff



All the listed sites are owned and maintained by people and organizations other than SWBANS, and therefore not under control of SWBANS. We do not necessarily share their views and opinions . We check them once in a while for appropriate contents (boat related stuff), but we have no influence what is currently shown.
Don't blame SWBANS if you see stuff you don't want to see, or if you don't see stuff you want to see, but let us know anyway. If you know links which we should add to this list let us know, also if you find a dead one.  Just email our web hamster
