Hi Sanual
I live in Plymouth, sorry to say our only lake (at Cadover Bridge Dartmoor has been sold off to the local fishing club so I have nowhere to run only salt water
thinking seriously about selling off the fleet.
2 x PPB DragCats,
2 x AC Lazer 45s,
1 x AC Edge hydro,
1 X AC Razor,
1 x PPB Skater Cat,
Bob.

i could really do with a practice lake before going into a race, need to do the fine tuning.....

They will let you run after 5 pm, all you need to do is put a couple of quid in the RNLI box and you can run all evening. I was there for a good 4 hours or so....
you do get a couple of windsurfers using the lake but they tend to use the area of lake away from the "beach".
