HUNDREDS of boat owners are staging a mass rally this weekend in protest against the 10mph speed limit for Lake Windermere.
The protest has been organised by the Keep Windermere Alive Association to raise awareness of its campaign against the limit to be enforced in 2005.
On Saturday three to four hundred pleasure craft, power and speedboats, will be joined by Gina Campbell the daughter of speed pioneer, Donald Campbell, in a parade around Bowness Bay.
The rally will begin at 2pm with boats congregating at around 1.45pm at the Glebe. They will process around Bowness Bay before turning anti clockwise around Belle Isle.
