| Pontoon and moorings at Linnhe Marine |
A thoroughly lazy day (at last). After a late breakfast and lunch we went ashore via the long pontoon for a late shower. The facilities are basic but work – you just have to make sure nobody is filling a boat tank before starting the shower. The moorings here are all very substantial as the bay is open to the NE. They each have a 2 ton block, heavy riser chain, thinner riser chain, then rope. The idea is to make sure that the boat is not snagging against a heavy riser chain. The yard is called Linnhe Marine and had been recommended to us. They in turn recommended Creran Marine, in Loch Creran, as a possibility for winter storage.
We left via the buoyed S channel and some wind appeared, so we took a sail across Loch Linnhe, or maybe it’s Lynne of Morvern at this point and then headed for the anchorage at Port Ramsey at the NW corner of Lismore. Seems a nice quiet island. We took a quick look ashore and will explore properly tomorrow.
Miles done etc: I think I will stop counting for now as we are now quite close to Oban.

No 3G signal here from 3. We must be getting into the wilds of the West Coast!
