We have had a long day’s sail, 9 hours beating against the wind to Plockton. 52 miles.
We are on a mooring buoy overnight and are leaving around 6am for Mallaig. The weather is meant to be very poor from 1pm tomorrow. We should reach Mallaig around then.
Our problem is we don’t know if Mallaig has room for us. They are full tonight and they don’t know if anyone will leave. We won’t know until around 10 am tomorrow if we have a phone signal to ring them. That’s probably 50/50!
So plan B will be to continue through the weather back to Tobermory. We need to find shelter for late Thursday and Friday’s predicted wind. Tobermory is the next nearest suitable point but will take a while to get there.
