Today the greta was massive, the bridge just after the keswick pencil museum had only a foot gap to get under and the get in was basically flooded fields.

The boat that was lost was a G-Force 5.9 blue urban camo, it was lost at the small bridge with the hole on river right, it was seen floating here and then lost. the rest of the river was paddled and walked and still no boat was found so if anyone finds it, either on the Greta, Derwent or in Bassenthwaite lake could they please contact Jay on 07746630413, they will be a pint as a reward.

The police have been informed and the swimmer was ok, one shoe less but thats all :)

Thank you,
Jay

Might be worth dropping a line to the park ranger who covers the lake?

Boats from the Greta often end up stuck around Low Stock Bridge on the Middle Derwent GR 236 268. Worth a look there.

Pam has just found this boat near Low Stock Bridge while on an open boat trip.
Thats where they often turn up.
