Diane had booked a holiday weekend at the Tarbet Hotel. She  thought it was Tarbert  Loch Lomond when in fact it was Loch Fyne, miles apart !

So we decided to have another wee shake down sail up  to Tarbert  about 25 miles from Largs and  to  have them on board for a couple of days

We sailed between Portavadie , Otter Spit and Tarbert .

It was very enjoyable , but next time Diane, please don’t bring your red trolley dolly case, it’ll give us a bad name.

        

We had a couple of shakedown sails.

One with our friend Iain to Port Bannatyne and the Kyles of Bute.

This is the 1st time Iain has been back on a boat since our  first outing on a flotilla in Greece over 15 years ago ago.

Its taken him that length of time to recover!

Incidentally also during that trip I have a video clip of Louise saying she had enjoyed the holiday but wouldn’t be a sailor! Funny how things turn out
