Hello and First time with SIB!

Hi everyone, Completely new to this. We have just bought our first SIB/outboard and looking forward to discovering Scotland's waters! We're keen to make our first trip and think we're good to go. We've signed up via the Registration Gateway for Loch Lomond, but I'd appreciate any advice you can give as to where we are allowed and where would be easiest to launch for our first time? Many thanks indeed!

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Take a look at this thread I posted last year:-

https://www.rib.net/forum/f50/milarr...ond-92275.html

Balloch has the only public slip, so unless you stay on one of the campsites, that's where you'll have to launch.

What sib & outboard do you have?

Hello and welcome from me too. Is this just your first SIB or first boating experience of any type?
