Outstanding! James and the crew always showed great consideration for the guests’ preferences and whilst at all times maintaining great diligence to ensure everyone’s safety, even adapted daily plans to fit in with the guests’ preferences. Each anchorage was well chosen and sheltered and he also made sure that whenever possible, meals were served at anchor. The crew were both willing to share their knowledge and benefit from that of the guests. They were also inclusive and accommodating. Onshore trips were magical, even when subjected to the vagaries of the weather! The food was of Michelin Star quality throughout the cruise and Caroline took so much care to provide alternatives for guests who required gluten and cow-free diets - she rose to this challenge wonderfully every day. Pauline’s table decorations and attention to detail were fabulous and down-to-earth common-sense approach ensured that everything ran smoothly. . Lynsey was lovely and very conscientious in pointing out wildlife as she spotted it, also acting promptly on the sightings of others. Just do it - but do it now or you’ll miss out because they’ll be fully booked!

Had a fabulous cruise around Skye and surrounding islands 17 to 24 July. Weather great, with a high pressure sitting over us all week. Amazing encounter with a pod of about 200 dolphins in a flat calm sea, as well as several minke whales, and even a couple of white tailed eagles. Loved the exploration visits to various islands, including the Shiants up north, Raasay, Canna and Eigg and Skye, which we circumnavigated. Food on board fabulous, and plenty of it! Crew of Ritchie, Helen, Lyndsay and Emma very friendly and helpful, and made the week a holiday to remember. Thanks Guys! Would recommend to anyone who loves the sea, small friendly cruises, and a touch of adventure!
