We are now safely ensconced in the cafe at the Fisherman's Mission in Mallaig.
My regular reader will be aware that I haven't blogged much recently.
Sorry about this but The Sea of the Hebides is lacking in broadband presently.
Anyway, since Loch Maddy we've been to ..........
North Harbour Scalpay where we met Angela and Martin and their campervan.
They came with us to the Shiant Islands where we enjoyed the wonderful birds and failed to find any giant black rats.

Back to Scalpay, then up to Stornoway (where we met Angela, Martin and their campervan). Stornoway has a new marina which is excellent.
Next to Loch Claidh. Lovely quiet anchorage with 3 families of seals.

Nect to Loch Harport, Skye. Water pump leaked all the way and sprayed black muck all over my nice clean engine.
Lovely peaceful night anchored outside the Talisker distillery.
Replaced the water pump next day. Thank you Sara !
Arrived Mallaig 1st July, in good time to avoid the promised gale.
Mallaig has a newish marina. Easy, friendly and good (but no loos, wifi or laundry ....well, basically a complete absence of basic facilities .. but good shelter, pontoons and friendly staff and boaters).
We are having good time and look forward to welcoming our guests soon.
