Scotland trip 2017

Again in mid June the water skiers headed to Scotland for a week of waterskiing, boarding and discs. It would have been lovely to see a repeat of the heat wave of June 2016 which saw hot weather all week in Scotland. That, of course, was just a spike in the mean monthly temperature and June 2017 was more of the usual average temperature! The forecast at one point was even as low as a chilly 8 degrees. Some days the temperature was cool enough for a hat.

Never the less a good week was had on the water. If the conditions were not flat for slalom or knee boards then they were ideal practice for race skis. The water conditions did not put too much of a damper on activities.

    Most days were either slalom skiing....

    

                                                         on the disc...                                                               











or knee boarding.


















When the conditions were flat it was ideal for a ski down the length of the Loch for a coffee stop and then ski back. If you also like cycling there are plenty of routes including a nice circuit of the loch. There was also even a bit of time for sub aqua, but the treasures were not to be found.

All round it was another good week of fun on the water. Thanks to all that took pictures and made it such a good week!
