What a brilliant cruise out beyond St Kilda, along the Rockall Shelf edge and round the top of Lewis and into the Minch. Three kinds of Dolphin, Basking Sharks, Minke Whales and a distant Fin Whale were the some highlights. Bird life rewarded us with the St Kilda wren and a juvenile Barred Warbler whilst on Hirta on the island, four types of Shearwater and a Sabine’s Gull. Elizabeth G was well suited for the challenges of our extended sailing times and the unpredictable seas off the north western islands of Scotland. The crew of James, Conor, Lynsey and Charlie were all brilliant in their navigating, guiding, cooking and supporting the guests getting the most out of our research expedition cruise. Thank you

Once again fabulous time on Elizabeth G and great to have Chris on board seeing all those things we could have missed, his knowledge seemed endless. Crew fantastic as usual and so lucky with the weather letting us reach St Kilda.
