    Earlier this year in April/May a group of us from the office chartered a yacht to go sailing in the West Coast around the Isle of Skye. The places we visited are Isle of Skye, Isle of Muck, Oronsay, Tobermory, Camas a Lighe, Kentra Bay, Loch Moidart and Arisaig.

    Here are some photos from the trip, enjoy!

    Fantastic photos Stan would always like to do one of those holidays. Love boats, but just not experienced with sailing...

    That must have been one of the three week in April we had good weather

    I'd love to do the west coast, just sailing and taking your time.
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    Well, looking back at our so call summer I think that was it. It was sunny cloudless sky everyday but still breezy enough to set sail. Here are some more








    Rum Cullins from Muck






    Sunset in Drumbuie



    Tobermory






    Dusk in Arisaig


    and some of them are brave enough to jump in the sea for a morning dip and I do mean a dip; straight in straight out.....
