Rats, that is a second season I have spent a bit too much time going down the Wallet and missed visiting this wonderful river.

I suppose there is always next year.

You can always try going in using your memory of the channel from 2 years ago.

The chartlet remains on our website giving the positions where the buoys have been since April.

That is fine if you REALLY trust your GPS.

Well, if you've been in there earlier this year with a plotter going, you could follow the dotted line.....
Did I really say that??

A few years back we did something very similar when confronted with the fact that the buoys had not been established for the season. As it was the previous year's track, I am not sure it was entirely wise.
