Hi everyone,

Left Greenock in a flat calm on Monday after collecting the crew and having safety briefings. Went to Holy Loch and had a quiet evening. Lefy Holy Loch early and headed out to a flat calm sea. This did not last for long as a Southerly F7 wind developed and we had to tack all the way down to the south of Arran. We then turned right and had a quick sail across to Campbeltown. We are currently having a cleanup, as a few people were sea sick yesterday. As there are gales forecast for today we have decided to stay in Campbeltown today and continue with our journey tomorrow.

this boat is great because of the people who run the boat.
I have a bad felling about the boat but it was great.
the best part so far was the beds the beds are the best thing on the boat.
Criag asked me to make him a cup off tea and a fell and landed on my head
