Loch Ranza

We didn’t have a plan for the last week or 2 of Marks sailing time, but now, looking at the weather we decided between us to have a few days in the Clyde area and give Mark as many new experiences as possible. Mark was to get off in Largs but we had made good enough progress north that we would drop him off further north.
For no particular reason apart from the wind direction out mental plan was a day in Aaron and day in The kyles do Bute And then round the Mull to Giga, one of Paul’s recommendations. So in thick fog patches we headed to Aaron,down wind again. Mark practices his Nav with dead reckoning and bearings when he could. I was re assured that Students stil;l learn this and Mark was enjoying practicing.
It was great to arrive at the mooring in north west Aaron as the fog cleared and this early in the season there was almost no one there. The water glassed off and we went ashore in the dinghy. Everything was closed, so we took a walk up the river to see if there was any likely trout fishing.Läs mer
