This event happened on the 26th and 27th September in Dromineer, Co.Tipperary.
12 boats met up from the club to spend 2 days out on the water in a mixture of sportsboats, ribs, motor cruisers and a hovercraft.
We met up at lunchtime on the Saturday at the slipway at lunchtime and were on the water an hour later.
Leaving Dromineer soon after, first stop was Mountshannon across the lake where we all went for a beer.
The motor cruiser crew tasked us with finding a chimney pot which allegedly pierces the water 1 mile south of Killaloe bridge. So off we went in the 6 fast craft to get the photo.
After getting the photos, we went further down river to Parteen weir for a toilet-stop and some more photos before heading home for a bbq by Dromineer Marina.

Sunday morning we all headed out across the lake to Dromaan harbour for the raffle where we collected €380 for Crumlin Childrens hospital.
Lunch was had in Garrykennedy 10 minutes away, and then it was back to Dromineer to haul the boats out of the water, and wave goodbye until the next time.
A fantastic weekend where the fast craft racked up 73km on the water.
