Fladda

Sunny! No point in rushing away from Oban as we wouldn’t get a south going tide till 2pm. So we had time for the “full Scottish” as well as picking up a three courser at M&S. And then off, waving goodbye to the chemical brothers.
We attempted sailing without the engine once out Kerrera Sound - to be overhauled and overtaken by the following boat. Dawson! We sped past him some time later as he looked for a mooring at Cullipool. Onward, the weather darkening and wind rising. But once through Dorus, a fine fine sail to Ardfern. So fine, I allowed a beer to be distributed to the crew as thanks. Then time to revert to my role as cook. And dishwasher. I need to advertise for experienced crew. It’s this covid and Brexit, innit.
