About The Skipper

Chris Scott-Park on Portnellan Farm

Chris started Portnellan Farm Speedboat Tours back in 2015, shortly after graduating from the University of Stirling with a degree in Environmental Science & Outdoor Education and returning to work on the family farm. The idea was to use his local knowledge and Portnellan’s unique location to provide a friendly and personalised service for those looking to explore Loch Lomond. Shortly after starting the speedboat tours he added kayak and stand-up paddleboard hire to the business realising that many people preferred the quieter and less busy location that Portnellan could offer. Chris now runs the boat tours and water-sports alongside working on the farm. He loves his job (although he doesn’t often consider it work!) and particularly enjoys meeting new people and talking to them about the farm and surrounding area.

Important Notes

  • Please remember to bring warm and waterproof clothing and wear suitable footwear.
  • Buoyancy aids will be provided and must be worn on the boat.
  • Smoking is not permitted on the boat.
  • Please note that any prices shown do not include any food or drinks unless otherwise stated.
