Hi, I'm currently building a scale model of the ferry that you went on. There is barely any useful reference I can find until I stumbled upon your video, which contains a huge amount of great details and all sorts of angles to help establish the size of things. All this is just pure gold to me, thank you so much.

Thanks, great to hear.

Glenelg. The only place in Scotland that is spelt the same forwards and backwards.

@DEEBEE-ey2xv 3 года назад

I used to have a family member who had a house next to the Cooling s ( think that's how it's spelt) the mountaineers would stay over. Thank you for sharing.

@BobEarnshawMoHo 3 года назад

Thank you, that would be the Cuillin Mountains, the famous black mountains on Skye.

Hey Bob my wife and I have been across on that ferry we also wild camped on the beach just before you got on the ferry !!!

I'm just watching some of the videos you did before I found you. I've never seen a ferry like that one. When you said it was a turntable ferry, I couldn't picture it. Really interesting. How long was the crossing, and how long did you have to wait for the ferry the second time? Portree harbour looks really lovely and picturesque.

@BobEarnshawMoHo 5 лет назад

Thanks, it was really interesting that ferry, only a short crossing, about 10 minutes. We returned via the Skye Bridge.

@@BobEarnshawMoHo It's the only remaining manually operated turntable ferry left in Scotland and I believe the lassie you filmed has qualified as a skipper. It's run by the community and costs a lot to keep going - they have an appeal going at the moment. It runs roughly every 20 minutes so if anyone has to wait on the Glenelg side, going into the wee shop and buy something to help keep this wee gem going. I'm heading over to Skye in September and using this ferry. Anyone interested just search for Glenachullish ferry. I agree with you that the road on the Skye side is a bit scary so don't recommend anyone who isn't like you, familiar with the size of their vehicle and can't reverse, etc., uses it.

Why did you not take MH are MH allowed ?

@BobEarnshawMoHo 3 года назад

We had hired a car, so we used that. It does not mention motorhomes on the Timetable, so we assumed there is a weight limit, but it does allow minibuses.
