bullet Isle of Arran (4th to 8th April 2008) - Click her for more photos
We set sail from Largs yacht haven on Friday afternoon, sailing around the Great Cumbrae Island and into Millport harbour to anchor overnight. On Saturday morning, we departed Millport and sailed around the north coast of Arran, through the Bute Sound and past the Cock of Arran. The journey continued west along the coast of Arran, through Kilbrannan Sound and into Campbeltown for an overnight stay. With winds of up to 28 knots, Maybe was able to reach boat speeds of 10 knots.

Stormy seas and exciting sailing

On Sunday, Maybe left Campbeltown for some fast sailing to Lamlash harbour around the east coast of Arran. Even stronger winds of 30 knots meant that Maybe reached 11 knots of boat speed. After leaving Lamlash, Maybe sailed back to Millport for an overnight stay. Everyone commented what a great weekend of sailing was had. Finally, we motored back to Largs with some 'man over board' practice drills en route.

bullet Caledonian Canal / Loch Ness trip (Oct 2007) - Click here for more photos
We decided to do a transit of the "Great Glen" from Inverness in the NE to Fort William in the SW through the stunning countryside of Loch Ness and the Caledonian Canal.

The Caledonian Canal
was completed in 1822 to enable British warships in the days of sail to cross Scotland without having to round the North coast with its often severe weather. There are some 29 man-made locks which Maybe had to pass through in addition to the natural lochs which form part of the canal. The width of the locks were built to accommodate a frigate of the time, so Maybe was able to pass through without any problems. Maybe attracted considerable attention as it's not often a Tall Ship passes through the canal.

You can read a report of the weekend at the Hull City Council's website.
