Re: Loch Tay
Nice scenery their sparerib. Im truly anviouse of the bodys of water in scotland they are clear pure and bloody beautifull especially on a all but rare sunny day in scotland. Donny has documented some amazing jaunts and i long to make just one of them. Perhaps 1 day when i can justify a second boat capable of such trips.

Re: Loch Tay
Awesome pics & info.
As Matt says, I think we're all very envious of Scotlands landscape.
Matt, sell your tub and buy a FRIB

Re: Loch Tay
Cheers boys, yes its very bonnie, no two days alike and with the changing seasons even more variable. Think we lucked in with the weather, 4 days of sunshine, hanging mist in the early morning but t shirt and shorts weather in the afternoon....not bad for October in the Highlands !! Its only 2hours from Edinburgh, with Loch Earn (roughly 7 miles long) on the way which is even closer

Re: Loch Tay
Awesome photos and scenery! Loved each one. Great lighting with the sun shining through and really enjoyed the spookiness of the calm water and cloudy sky.
Wrote a note said, 'back in a minute'. Bought a boat and I sailed off in it.

Grew up near the humid Ozark Mountains in the midwest hanging out at the large surrounding lakes and that foggy scene brought back some great memories!
