- An attempt at capturing our rather interesting voyage from Ardrossan to Brodick yesterday
No animals were harmed in the making of this video, although some damage took place to the Calmac Xmas tree and some crockery. Catherine is now completely recovered.

There's nothing quite like a Scottish summer!
Hahaha
As a scottish pedestrian, i can confirm this report is 100% true 😂
Nothing better than a nice calm sailing from brodick to ardrossan like this
I kayak in these waters...and have once been shadowed by the Portavadie - Tarbet ferry when a sudden change in the weather arrived. 30 mph winds, 1-2m waves and a 5m swell. I paddled into the wind for nigh on 20 minutes being made to stand off of the fish farm opposite the marina. The RNLI duly arrived and towed me in. The ferry captain as I mentioned stood off to starboard for the entire time. He knows who he is. ❤️🚢
For not checking the marine weather forecasts and costing the RNLI a fortune and delaying a ferry, I'd have slapped you will a huge bill in the hope that you obtained more than one brain cell.
@@henrygingold6549 ooooooo harsh.
Well done Cal Mac. Thats the first time Ive seen a ferry do a hand break turn
Hand brake turn
Exemplary seamanship. Hats off to the OOW. Respect 👊
sailed on a rough see like this, this morning. When i tell you it doesnt feel as bad as it looks i mean it, makes you feel abit sick but nothing like what it looks like.
Fantastic video although I wouldn't like to be on it !
I've only been to Arran 3 times and the first time it was like that when the ferry arrived at Ardrossan to take us there. Its not the most ideal harbour and these guys do a great job.
I go on this ferry every year, the drivers are experts at driving the boat
It's their hardest rout due to there being no cover from mountains so when the wind picks up it gets realy windy also calidonian Isles the boat can't handle high wind speeds or a rough sea
@@tinnedhaggis932 Ahem - heard of the Minch? Or the crossing to Castlebay?
“You’re ferry has arrived and is ready to board”
‘Nah. F#ck that !’
Nothing out of the ordinary for a windy day. The Clyde has seen far worse weather than that and back in the 1950's and 1960's, the ferries still ran. I was on the Duchess of Hamilton many years ago and it broke 3 mooring lines, trying to come alongside Dunoon Pier. And that was on one of the summer excursions around Ailsa Craig.
Some people dont realise when Calmac cancel sailings it is because of passenger comfort not safety of the ship I have travelled on lots of Calmac ferries and I am surprised at the level of criticism sometimes leveled at them
Oh really? So it's never due to ancient ferries breaking down and abysmal management?
@@henrygingold6549 this guys got a point they should've bought the fucking Saturn back when they had the chance
Gute Seemannschaft!
In reality coming into the harbour was far worse than leaving. We were heading into the wind and waves, and although there was significant pitching into the waves, with waves coming over the bow. As we headed across and got into the lea of Arran things calmed down, relatively.
Good ship handling right there.
That looks amazing haha
A wee dram [or three] after getting tied to the dock might be in order
Been on Cal Mac a lot but I wouldn't want to have my motorcycle on that one !
Was the boat cancelled for the rest of the day?
Not sure, but I thinks so
There's no doubt about it, if you want a safe journey you can't do better than sail with Calmac. P.s. bring your own sick-bag.
Alejandra y Alan Bowman sh’d’n’t need a sick bag, the lee side is long enuf lol
😂 try the port appin to lismore open top Grp 26ft shopping and all.........🤪🏴👍

Very appropriate. music
Calmac crews , best in the world
It was ruff
That was some sharp turn 😮🤢
Thats nothing to wat the old satyrn couldve dkne that in 5 seconds
oops bit choppy me thinks love it
😂
Kill the wabbit....Kill the wabbit....kill the wabbit.
Exemplary seamanship is more or less the only good thing about CalMac. Customer service, fares, cussid crew, lousy timetables and appalling maintenance.
Hi Ian,
Interested in this clip. is there an email I could possibly contact you on?
