Redemption

I was pleased to load the vessel up at Craignure this morning with a full cargo of vehicles.  We got all the booked and then managed to squeeze in the last 9 stand by cars so we sailed with 54 cars and about 7 commercial vehicles, could have taken on three or four more actually, so a new goal to pursue.
Nice run to Colonsay today, a new record there as well 11 vehicles going onto the island.  I brought her back going inside the Garvellaches and getting the benefit of the Great Race so we had about 3 knots of tide with us as one point.  All tied up for the night now at 5, unfortunately night on board for me so no shore leave.
I am staying on an extra day going home on Thursday evening now, after we have been out to Coll and Tiree again.  Early starts all round.
