Distressed and astonished no mention of recreational sailing (or racing for that matter), Especially as Northern Ireland with Lough Erne has Europe's very best inland sailing waters. A couple of weeks ago, for example, a Lisburn couple with a Drascomb lugger, camped ashore (at the yacht club) and explored Erne's capes, bays and islands from Enniskillen to the Broad Lough. Afterwards, hauled the boat out hitched on to the car and off home.
