    Which way would you be coming from? There is another Waterski/Wakeboard club which is on the Macroom side of the dams. It's called Carrig. You could try contacting them via their facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/CarrigWaterski?sk=wall

    I have no idea. I just know of the waterski/wakeboarding club. If you don't mind saying, what's the boat?

    You could possibly use a slip about 30yards to the right of the rowing club.
    Its not very conspicuous so you will have to look for it.
    It is pretty steep and you wouldnt be allowed use the rowing clubs jettys due to insurance reasons.

    I dont know if the club have exclusive rights to the resevoir but they have to open the barrier for you so ringing ahead might be on the cards,
    Ive used the resevoir for SUPin and there was no probs but as for powerboats I dont know if that would cause a problem.

    As far as I can see the biggest problem would be swallowing the water there(VERY BLACK) so I reckon pollution may be a cause for concern.
    During my 3 hrs there I didnt see one fish jump.

    Best of luck.
