Monday 9 September 2013 – Rum to Muck


Left after lunch and had a good reach across to Muck.  Approaching the island, it became a bit windy for full sail but we soon reached the shelter of Muck and motored in.  One yacht was already there and 2 others arrived later, making it busier than expected.  We visited the fisherman and bought 2 crabs, ready-cooked.  He had been busy with hay-making and was hoping the rain might hold off for a couple of days, but was not hopeful.  We think his late haymaking might be part of a scheme to protect the corncrakes.
