4 Kidneys and a Wonky Leg

Our shortest journey yet, a little hop around a large sandbank and into the Sea Lock at Clacknaharry, a quick chat with the Lockeeper and we decide to stay for our “free” night in Seaport Marina. We left Inverness at 08:45 and by 10.00 our journey was over, 1.5 miles.

We decided we’d go to Muirtown locks to watch a couple of yachts go up the lock flight just to familiarise ourselves with the techniques they were using to handle the boats in the locks.

The Lockeeper was very chatty and offered all sorts of advice, the most important of which was stay well clear of hire boats.

We walked into town (Inverness) & Louise had some retail therapy, gifts & self treats being purchased. We lunched out and then went in search of Inverness Castle, unfortunately that was closed. The clouds had become darker so we headed back to the boat, arriving just as it started to rain.

Tomorrow we head off to Lock Ness!
