Sunday 22 September 2013 – Campbeltown to Lamlash

After 2 long days and with no tidal constraint, we enjoyed a lie in and left late morning after chatting to 2 of the 3 other visiting boats.  Both were on their last trip of the season, one from Bangor (NI) and one from Girvan, and both were regular visitors to Campbeltown.

Good sail with cruising chute until we rounded the S end of Aran, then the wind went a bit light and it took ages to get to Lamlash.  Just for a change we departed the pontoon and picked up the mooring under sail.  It’s a good job we charged the battery fully on shore power.

Sunny, warm and with a fair wind!
