Nice One!.. Good to see the next Generation getting out-there!
And not on their X-Nintendo-Game Gals 24-7!

Lucky for me he loves the boat as much as I do.
It was quite choppy yesterday and a few occasions I thought would bother him went the opposite way and he was giggling away to himself.
I think there may be some go pro footage coming along when Kerny gets back online 
By the way, if anyone was missing any drunken dickheads last night, I found them camping around me..

Well despite being delayed by a day due to a Hospital appointment, we did manage to get there Saturday morning.
Thanks to Kerny we managed to get the tent up quickly despite pouring rain. Sorry if we missed anyone, was great to meet Greg and family maybe next time we will get to spend longer on the water
Here's a few pictures to prove the SIB Club did get there

The one picture i didnt get which would of been the shot of the year was when The Ullswater passenger steam ferry nearly ran into kerny  The sound of the ferry horn blasting at him to get out of the way must of frightened the life out of him 
He even blamed his poor wife for not doing her job as look out  for gods sake its a bloody big ferry to miss in open water

Looks like fun. Was launching easy? Will I need to put the launch wheels on or can I literally camp 20 feet from the lake edge?

You will need your wheels on, I struggled on my own dragging my Honwave out and up to the tent, I was fairly close at around 100 yards from the water.

There was hardly any beach at all and the water was very choppy.
Well sorry guys I have no video footage  so I will have to check if all is working correctly on my camera.
Also it took awhile to get my engine running properly it kept cutting out, not sure why  I will get it in for its first service sometime this week, otherwise it was nice to meet up with newbies Glow and greg2103 and their families, we will have to do this again sometime in the near future
