Due to the rain, condensation and all the salt from spray, the boat has been getting quite damp over the past few days so when the day started warm and sunny it was time to for a wash down and clean. Everyone in the marina was doing the same, duvets hanging over the boom, people scrubbing decks, we even aired the mattress.
We also caught up on some clothes washing, and did a few maintenance items.
After all the thermal layered days of the past couple of months it was a shorts and T-shirt day. We took a stroll out along the tree-lined cliffs to the lighthouse at “Rubha Nan Gall” which means Strangers Point in Scottish Gaelic, from there we could see Ardnamurchan Point around which we hope to sail tomorrow on the way to the Island of Rum.
It started to get cooler on the way back to the boat and by the time we’d done some shopping and had an ice cream the clouds had started to darken and just as we reached Watanga it started to rain. Well it was good timing for us, but couldn’t it just be sunny for a whole day, or even a week?
