Weekend water craft

Had a weekend of showers broken up by the occasional bright spell but the changeable weather didn't deter the hardy boating life. Apart from the usual hired cruisers and yachts we saw some different craft taking advantage of the waters of Loch Ness.
This large private cruiser glided past Aspenwood on the calm water on Saturday and we could just imagine guests having cool drinkies on the decking and enjoying the start of their holiday.
On Sunday the waters were choppier with white peaks and not so pleasant for this working trawler traversing Loch Ness from the west coast to Inverness - no drinkies allowed for this crew!
This adventurous chap had his hands full steering his canoe along the loch and dealing with the hazards of the waves and wash from other bigger boats. Glad to see he was wearing a life preserver. If anyone deserves a drink - he does!

Not sure who is having the worst day here, the chap in the canoe or the ones having drinks on the cruiser.
It's a hard life!
