Helpful Hints and Tips

Crossing Large Lakes
  1. Always allow sufficient time for crossing the lakes before dark.
  2. Do not attempt to cross the lakes in anything but settled weather.
  3. If you are in doubt about crossing the lakes, just phone back to the cruiser company base to check the weather conditions or to seek advice.
  4. Always make sure you are following your chart and keeping a close look on the navigation markers. Do not rely on other cruisers for navigation.
  5. Do not navigate too closely to the many islands as there are shoals and rocks. It is very important that you follow your maps correctly and pay particular attention to all the navigation markers. Only areas shown on your chart provided by your cruiser company are permitted for cruising. Craft cannot be taken below Killaloe Bridge.
  6. We advise not to anchor on the lake overnight as the wind can rise or change direction at any time, possibly putting you in a dangerous situation.
