Hello

[Matt68]

Just joined the forum and thought I would say hello, I'm relativly new to boating having only bought my Honwave T38 and Tohatsu 9.8 four stroke new last year, but have used it quite a lot in that time, mainly in the Scottish Highlands but with the exception of north Wales once and a few times around Lancashire where I live.

Hi Matt and welcome. Scotland is a great sibbing area to start in, I assume west coast?

Hi Matt and welcome.

Never Ullswater or Windermere?

Welcome. You'll be needing a boat name.

Not suggesting it, but I saw this one recently, being an Irish boat, it amused me

Hi Fenlander, yes I love Scotland, I I tend to go on the Lochs, loch Leven, Fyne, and Lomond being my favourites, but I have been out in the Atlantic a few times too, Aran, Mull, and really enjoyed the skerries near Mallaig this year, another good trip on the Sib this year was from Uisken on Mull around the Mull coast to Iona, circumnavigating Iona clockwise from the Atlantic side and coming back through the sound of Iona then back to Uisken.

Yes Steve, Ullswater has been a regular haunt, but not Windermere as I've not registered the Sib on there yet.

Haha quite a good one that Willk, I've not named the Honwave yet, always refering to something like Honwave or Honwave inflatable when calling for radio checks etc 🙂

Good to hear you enjoyed around Mallaig. I've just booked 8 days in Arisaig, part of an 18 day trip in Scotland.

The Skerries are fantastic Steve
