Balloch Steam Slipway
Balloch Steam Slipway. The engine, winch and slipway were completed in 1902 for the overhaul and inspection of steam vessels. It was regularly used until 1990 after which it fell in to disrepair. Volunteers from The Loch Lomond Steamship Company LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) rebuilt the facilities bringing the slipway back into working order once more.
