The perfect way to end the first leg of our honeymoon! We loved it! Skipper Iain and Chef Steve have been superb – tough we’ll curse having met Steve as we no longer have an excuse for serving-up less than perfect dishes in our small kitchen! The short cruise around these beautiful islands has been a delight – as has the company. Thank you to crew and guests – you’ve helped make the start of our married lives together so memorable! We hope to be back!!

Boat and team excellent, Jamie in sorting out pre tour, Iain for everything and Mike what wonderful food and wise ‘crack’ coming from that small galley. Wonderful, in my mind forever.
Tim & Liz
What a wonderful experience with two wonderful guys who have treated us like family and explained so much about their beautiful Scotland. We wish you well in this new venture.
Margo
