Oban to Largs via Ballycastle

On Saturday morning, John Hulme and I met up at 5am to take the drive to Dalmuir, near Glasgow, to join the early morning sleeper on its way to Fort William from London. We left the “sleepy overnight passengers” at Crianlarich to board our bus for the final leg of our journey up to Oban. After breakfast at Weatherspoon’s, we strolled up to the Oban Town Pontoons to welcome the crews back from the previous Charters. We had good debriefs from our Polish charterers and an excellent recount of their adventures before they commenced their long journey back home. Handbacks over, some routine maintenance on Jay and Midnight Mirage complete, and both boats thoroughly cleaned, we got ready to welcome our new Crews for the week. John’s crew had flown in from Paris and had great plans for Mull and the Small Isles.
