On Saturday, I'll be at the town slipway in the far northern corner of the lake at around 9.30am.

Hi,
Many thanks to Matthew P, and Jonno for letting me hog the helm of both their boats on Thursday.  I took some pictures which I will attempt to post below.

best wishes

Here's a link to some photos and a video from yesterday's trip to Bala (Turaco and Ella in attendance) https://www.flickr.com/gp/80529710@N07/373887

The next trip will be on Thursday 1st, all welcome.  If the water level is OK (it is sinking fast) I will be at the town slipway (northernmost corner) from about 9.30am.

A most enjoyable first sail on Bala. Thanks to all, particularly Matthew and Graham for organising it and to Simon and Graham for the photos. Those early morning shots from yesterday are very atmospheric.
