Loch Na Beiste to Ornsay

Pippa Shaw

A bit of a spicy sail today, but we knew that was likely to be the case so were well prepared. Early start and a good workout getting the double anchors that had held us for the last few days lifted, followed by top speeds around 7kts coming through the narrow channel, then some big swells and strong eddies with some decent headwinds to accompany us the rest of the way to our next anchorage. Thankfully, no damage or injuries, we knew it was going to be a bumpy ride! Probably not how I'd have chosen to celebrate our anniversary, but at least we're one step closer to Mallaig: a walkashore pontoon, shops, laundry, and showers 🚿
