Hello Jieboy,

I've spent many happy hours at the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar at the head of the Loch.

I hear they have laid some visitors moorings free if you eat there.

Post some more pics of Loch Fyne sometime. It's a beautiful place.

Hello Jieboy

Welcome to Ribnet...

My RIB is very very similar to yours, only difference is that mine is made by Narwhall.

Possibly meet up with you sometime next year when we get some local meet ups arranged.
