Another early start at 05:00 to take advantage of the tide and hopefully get past Ardnamurchan Point before it turned foul, as it happened there was no wind so under engine that was not a problem and I got all the way on one tide.
The highlight of the leg was wildlife, 2 or 3 Sea Otters, some Dolphins and a huge flock of Guillemots, otherwise it was cool trip for much of the way with some spectacular cloud formations. I was lucky to miss several intense showers to arrive warm, dry and in time for a much needed shower before lunch ashore.
The first time I have got a photo of a Sea Otter, unfortunately I had the standard lens on the camera rather than the telephoto but at least I got it. |
