In this episode we continue our nautical journey as we set sail from the picturesque Kerrera Marina in Oban, embarking on a mesmerising voyage via the historic Crinan Canal to Tarbert, Brodick, and finally back to our winter haven at Largs Yacht Haven in the Clyde.
Our journey begins with the warm embrace of the fading summer sun, accompanied by tranquil waters and gentle breezes. Little did we know, this trip would be filled with an unexpected twist.
Navigate with us through the historic Crinan Canal, a breath taking waterway surrounded by lush landscapes. Watch closely as we encounter every sailor’s nightmare - a grounding on the canal's shoulder. The suspense lingers: What is the extent of the damage? Stay tuned as we assess the situation.
A true highlight of our journey unfolds as we join forces with the crew of the sailing yacht ALNIKA. Together, we tackle the 15 locks and 7 bridges along the canal, forging bonds and overcoming challenges to reach the charming Ardrishaig.
The trip continues as we sail to the picturesque fishing harbour of Tarbert.
Our sails billow with wind as we navigate to Brodick on the Isle of Arran to tick off another “must” on Kathrin’s hiking list: Join us on an exhilarating hike to the summit of Goat Fell, one of the region's highest Corbetts. The panoramic views from the top are nothing short of breathtaking!
As the wind forecasts a change, we make a decision to leave Brodick Bay early, ensuring a smooth final leg of our summer expedition
