Wonderful Donny (again!) the scenery is simply stunning. And you had lovely weather for the most part. I can imagine if the weather turns its brutal out there!
Thanks fastasfox..hope you have your boat back on the water again. Weather has been shocking up here since that week back in May..and no sign of it improving either 😞
A great adventure indeed…..stunning showcasing of the area, hopefully we get some heat and you manage to get in for a swim this year….great navigation in the fog, I’d be very nervous inching my way through that, I can imagine your ‘surprise’ at seeing a Yacht silently creeping out of it just in front of you 😂
My heart jumped when I saw the shape of the yacht looming out the mist so close Libertas ..then I was so relieved when I sussed out it was slow moving. I did curse coming across the other two yachts behind it though.. I felt enough was enough lol.
Thanks again footprintsacrossscotland. My latest video shows how Im trying to avoid those nasty ticks. I get bitten every camp I go..well until my last outings as shown in the video 😀
Super video again Donny. Thanks for the effort you put into making them, appreciated! A lovely area I have been privileged to visit on a few occasions ( and luckily by sail as well). Love that pink granite. Did visit the Tresnish Isles once on tourist vessel ( Turus Mara ? ) which was excellent but not to be compared to exploring by rib or yacht. Glad you get to take essential ‘gravy’ or Brewdog with you, maybe a drop of malt would go down well in the evening?
I have a wee hip flask for emergency use only robert ..or to celebrate a decent event happening ..but I tend to keep to the less volatile gravy for general medicinal use 😀
Great set of 3 videos I think I saw you set off for this one early in the morning I really wanted to follow you but I know how much you love your privacy and thought it would be rude of me so I just bored other people I knew in the area I was in crying about not going. Really love your video so keep them coming your an inspiration. Ray K UK 🇬🇧 YNWA.
Thanks Ray ..this poor weather is keeping me close at home too..not been further than Lismore since I were round Mull ..even then Im at home more than any other summer I can recall. Hope good weather arrives soon 😲 ?
Fantastic, I personally think all the films are great and truly love them .I ve been out around some cliffs in North Wales this week and found which I'm sure we all know the films do not give them true justice to the scenery, The views you film must be absolutely fantastic close up, So pleased you take the time to film and edit these for us all to enjoy, thx Donny
Thanks terence and you are correct..its hard to capture the feeling of height of cliffs when below them in a small boat.. My videos try..but its not the same as being there 😀
Hi bob ,,yes I didnt enjoy that crossing. Had I know the fog was the full way across I would have waited but I was also aware the forecast was for strong winds getting up that evening. All worked out well though..thanks for commenting 😀
The Ross is a special place Jeff.. I would have been in touch asking if you are coming up..but this weather is terrible.. I have the electric blanket back on at night its so cold..rain every day ..and strong winds. Hopefully things improve soon ?
@@donnywilcox I’ve been watching Donny not good mate we’ll wait for a weather window in the coming weeks or months hopefully.just got my engine to run up now,love the boat tent👍
I couldn't take my eyes off for a second in case i missed anything, you've certainly mastered the drone footage with aplomb, without you i would be in ignorance of your wonderful views of and narrative everywhere you go. For some reason i was more relaxed watching when all the rocks were so visible and you were so so confident in the Fog to get home. Where have all the fish gone in the shallows nowadays or was that two among the tangle? I've not seen a flounder for years either. Much appreciated Donny Well Done.
Hi rha.. I think the fish are still there in the shallows but not very big ones. Lots of seaweed for them to hide under. I do see the odd flat fish dart out the way of my big feet when walking the boat into deeper water. I keep hoping to get a whale from over head drone footage..or even a pod of dolphins..but only managed a few seals so far :-D
What a cracking cruising ground! Those rock formations were stunning. I loved all those little islands and the beaches were just beautiful. Are you still using the Vango Galaxy 300 tent?
Dear me it looks like paradise, just like the Caribbean as your say,what a fantastic video to watch ,relax and enjoy.we are so lucky you share these with them with us.thank you for your time and effort
Hi Stuart..yup..its a lovely area. I still have the Vango Galaxy but not used it this year at all. In truth I find it a bit big for a quick overnight stop..and also because of its size..very obvious so dont like leaving it set up when I go off adventuring for the day. My latest tent..in the recent new video will hopefully replace bother the Banshee and the Galaxy tents..but Im still experimenting :-D
Nope ..no fishing on that trip user-en. I do fish occasionally but I find I get bored unless Im getting a few. Had some nice trout out Loch Etive lately though..that will be in a forthcoming video :-D
Brilliant little coves and beaches it's fantastic of you to show us . thanks for your time and effort donny
Im always happy to make the videos harry ..and delighted others enjoy them :-D
Wonderful Donny (again!) the scenery is simply stunning. And you had lovely weather for the most part. I can imagine if the weather turns its brutal out there!
Alright Donny! More guid times....always an adventure
Another adventure put up today kevin ..so look out for it too 😀
Thanks fastasfox..hope you have your boat back on the water again. Weather has been shocking up here since that week back in May..and no sign of it improving either 😞
Another exciting adventure Donny. Thanks Steve 👍
you really do get out and about and see some fantastic sights.
Thank you for sharing with us.
I have not been going far lately though crf9993 ..due to terrible west of scotland weather. I hope summer arrives soon :-0
Very impressed Donny, well done. Some great footage from what looks a fantastic trip. You could wear a radar reflector hat, of some sort.
Just stunning Donny, you capture the beauty so well , what an amazing place
Thanks again Ian..appreciated as usual 😀
Seen you yesterday about 1:30-2pm I was on my way you Oban and you where turning right with boat in tow 👌🏻

Was nice of you to come say hello today by the Connel bridge - we thought we might bump into you. Keep up the adventures and the videos 👍
It was lovely meeting you two too mxf. My latest video .. just uploaded shows what I had been up too just before we met 😀
Another fine series Donny, looked idyllic as usual, cheers Paul

Probably some of your best drone shots - but a bit scary with crossing through all that fog😟
Hi bob ,,yes I didnt enjoy that crossing. Had I know the fog was the full way across I would have waited but I was also aware the forecast was for strong winds getting up that evening. All worked out well though..thanks for commenting 😀
Another sensational production by Wilcox studio's.
Great Video. Loved to see the seals.
Magnificent drone footage Donny I love the Ross of mull with the sunshine no better place mate 👍
