Lochinver to Kinlochbervie. Sat 4th September
The forecast is for a force 4-5, then 6-7, but then so was yesterday when we had no wind at all! So we set off out of the marina, and there is a good amount of wind, and in our favour, so we get the sails up, turn the engine off and we're off!!
Rob loves it, trying to go as fast as possible, even if it is in the wrong direction!!
We get a good sail all day, and make good time to Kinlochbervie, arriving at the entrance to the small loch just at high water. We find Anne and Rob a nice sheltered bit of wall, and they drop in for a pretty good wall dive. Its a beautiful calm late afternoon as we pootle in to the harbour and tie up on the hammerhead of the pontoon, in the last space - its only a small bit of pontoon!
Showers all round, then off to find tea. So far we have not had too much luck with eating out while Anne & Rob have been with us, either we are too late, they are too busy, or they just haven't liked the look of us (must be Anne & Rob, can't possibly be me or Ivan!!!). When we get to the pub, we are told, that as a group of 14 had booked, and just sat down to order the chef may be too busy to take any more orders, even though we were 30 mins before they stopped taking orders! Just our luck! But, a bit of pursuading and we get to order food - Happy Daze!
