This was from our weekend at Loch Etive. At Taynuilt you have to start beaching from a long way back. A fully loaded expedition boat is quite a haul. And your wake is very, very small.

The Gurnard at WOT with a dramatic background, leaving a ruler straight wake like chalk on a blackboard.

My first ever post on here. Decided to join in the fun as there doesn't seem to be much going on at another well known forum.net

Forgot it was a picture in motion as mines sitting still...oops

Not to influence a vote, but I'm sold on Harrison's 'Flip' photo. Would have helped sell me on an inflatable as well per last months competition.

Guess if you're going to post, might as well have a pic attached...

Wrote a note said, 'back in a minute'. Bought a boat and I sailed off in it.

Not sure if this counts for "outboard water trails", its my Son Loch Lomond in 2011 with our Seahawk II and Excursion 55 Electric Outboard, I still have the Seahawk and would love to get the floor repaired so my Nephew can make use of it.

We had 5 brilliant years with that boat and Lecky Motor, did plenty of hours on the Loch and in the sea off Scotland, it saw a few sights including a large Pod of Dolphins, Seals and caught penty of fish for the Barbie.

My son loved it and the steady motor still made him smile when he hit speed 5, can't wait for him to see the difference with the new F-Rib and O.B :D
