Our most enjoyable ten days ever on Scotland's West Coast. We saw countless Gannets, Fulmars, Puffins and large numbers of Dolphins. Manx Shearwaters, Guillemots and Razorbills joined in as did Skuas, Shags and Cormorants. And on our return past Ardnamurchan several Minke whales came to visit. Chris, the skipper, skilfully adjusted our itinerary to make the best of some changeable weather so we managed to reach both the Shiant islands and St Kilda as well as interesting anchorages on the way. Lynsey's keen eye kept us alert to every sighting, Greg spoiled us with imaginative dishes and Bea looked after us with a never-ending supply of Prosecco and cake. Utterly delightful.

Fantastic week exploring. Didn't quite know what to expect.. but it exceeded our expectations. The crew were all extremely hospitable and made us very welcome. The food provided by Carlton the chef was like going to a great restaurant every night. None of us had done anything like this before and we all came away blown away by it. We had the cabins with single beds at the front of Elizabeth G and given we are tall people it suited us better that the double bed cabins would have. Thanks to Alasdair, George, Craig and Carlton for giving us such a special week and Emma for making the booking process easy. We will be back Stuart
