Sailing away

An old friend John and I have been out sailing for two days now.

Tonight finds us in windswept Troon, we should know better it always
blows old boots whenever we come here. We set off from Largs this
morning and sailed under a little jib to Lamlash where we had lunch
tied up to a mooring buoy and then a very bumpy 14' across to here.
Quite big following seas with a F5 to 6 NW'ly behind us but we
survived but going ashore tonight I was all over the place with my
newly found sea legs. If the weather forecast is correct then we
should have a S or SE'ly tomorrow which will waft us up to Kames for a
meal ashore there. Still blowing from the NW just now though.

The photos are of the sunsetting over Great Cumbrae last night, a
Fifer in Largs and looking North towards Goat Fell on Arran as we
entered Lamlash Bay, spot the snow on the tops.
