Has anyone launched at the great glen waterpark on Loch Oich. I am booked for a week there and dont know if it is worth taking the boat up as the loch looks pretty small. I'm also a bit confused over the access to the caledonian canal as it seems a bit pricey. Any info would be great.
cheers mac
not used the slip. Loch oich isn't very big but if you don't take the boat I bet you sit there wishing you had.
Cost of using the canal is about 65 quid for a 4m boat for 1wk, which is the minimum. However you only need to pay if you enter the analysed sections - essentially if you go through any locks. Bad news is the license is only available from ft William or inverness.
Potential to get to other cruising for a day from that base too...
Thanks for the advice, i know you're right about wishing I had brought the boat. I may launch from Arisaig and do Skye. I know Arisaig well (from the beach) and it looks a navigational nightmare.

Take the boat pay the money. Loch Ness is possible in the day just.
