Hi Emma - I just wanted to thank you and all your crew members for giving me the most incredible experience ever over the past few days. It is difficult to encapsulate it all in words ! From the minute we stepped on board the Lucy Mary we were treated like royalty. Abbie was amazing, discrete professional and easy to talk to. James, well his knowledge and expertise incredible. It was just lovely to sit around the table and hear everyone's stories and experiences in life and I will treasure the memories. You have a real gem in Sammy the chef . The food was out of this world! Just exquisite! Indys knowledge on wildlife and how he could identify everything was amazing. His love for wildlife shone! Will a steady guy just making sure everything was as it should be - incredible. So many highlights and laughs and just sheer joy to the soul. It was good to meet you and thank you for all the information you sent prior to boarding as it was all helpful. Very very special time. Thank you all.

Our first but not last cruise , much delayed due to COVID but we got there in the end! A total “ wow” from start to finish , from the moment we boarded we knew that this was going to be special. As the cruise progressed out from Oban in the sun , with some fizz and cake the scene was set. Having such a knowledgeable crew was great , we felt in very safe hands so for small boat novices this was a great plus. Then , the wildlife, scenery , anticipation , meals and great company just made it perfect. Even the odd wet day didn’t detract, we managed to land on all the Islands, saw the most spectacular birdlife at The Shiants, a Minke “ lunge” feeding on the way, White Tailed Eagles , Dolphins , Seals and even the very rare Jennifer Saunders creature! Nothing was too much for the crew, they looked after us beautifully, with great patience ..we ask lots of questions..a great group of people. Thanks so much for making this such a memorable experience , we have already booked for next year...or as Skipper James said..” Do it whilst you are still vertical”! Will and Sarah Walker-Smith
