2013

We headed back to the boat at the end of April 2013 and she came out of the water at BJ Marine in Bangor for a couple of days for antifouling, cleaning and a few odd jobs.

From Bangor, we did a direct passage to Troon, past Ailsa Craig.

We spent a couple of days in Largs and explored the town as well as going for a walk to Geeto’s Bridge.

We spent a few days in Rhu Marina and travelling around.

A passage up through Loch Long into Loch Goil and moored at Lochgoilhead.

From Lochgoilhead, we headed down to Port Bannatyne just north of Rothesay on the Isle of Bute.

From Port Bannatyne (on Bute) we headed through the Kyles of Bute through to Lochranza on Arran.

From Lochranza we hopped across to Tarbert. A beautiful entrance and lovely village. Very sheltered.

In the middle of July, we did a few days – from Rhu to Lamlash and back to Rhu via Largs.

In August 2013, we did a tour round various places on the Firth of Clyde.

On September 10th 2013 we did the passage through the Crinan Canal from Ardrishaig to Crinan.
