Our group of 10 friends took Emma Jane for 6 days in the Small Isles and although we were all pretty excited in anticipation of our trip for months in advance, I have to say it exceeded all our expectations in every way. Amazingly the seas were calm, and although it was cool, our welcome certainly was not. All the crew, from our superb chef, Caroline, to our delightful and knowledgeable naturalist and our great captains (yes, two for the price of one!), Rob and Chris, could not have been more charming, helpful and pleasant to spend time with. And Emma was so efficient in handling all the arrangements. The area is, of course, scenically stunning, the wildlife abundant, and I really cannot imagine how our trip could have been bettered. I am sure we all sincerely hope to return one day. Many thanks and best wishes, Jenny Brewis

Another superb trip... Great food from Sally and really good crewing and wildlife observating from Rob Craig and Jill.The highlight had to be the feeding fest of 6 minke whales and countless dolphins and gannets as the herded a shoal of fish..such magnificent cooperation. Sadly this may be my last trip. But maybe in ,2027 as an 80th celebration!
