Although very dreary, the weather improved except for a lack of wind and what was coming would be from the east so I decided not to try for the Shiant Islands and N. Uist but to press on towards Orkney. With winds still for the moment in the North I went to Portree on Skye that would give the best shelter, unfortunately much of the trip was under engine - like a lot of this cruise.
I went ashore for some fresh supplies but unfortunately most were on fairly short use by dates, on the boat I usually stick to these as being ill on a small boat is even less fun then when ashore, particularly when single handed.
