    Hi all I hope to do a little boat trip from Enfield to Thomastown and would like to launch at Enfield but can't seem to find any info or photos on the slipway or what the parking would be like to leave the car and trailer there for the day.
    Any photos or info on the slipway and parking would be a great help.
    Thanks.

    That was my first build with just basic DIY skills but I have always been around boats and engines the one I'm building at the moment is a bit more work but should be a lot more fun :D
