    As kids we always used to sit on the top of the ventilator at the aft corner of the deck on the ferry on fine days, to and from Lochmaddy or Lochboisdale, I'd watch the gannets gliding in the airwake of the ferry for hours.

    This is amazing and the camera work is so good very inspiring as I have just got my first sailing boat a westerly and dream someday of seeing the west coast of Scotland

    Nice content, your photography and narration are excellent; however, we do find the music (although it is very nice music) to be somewhat overpowering. I sit with my hand on the volume knob of the speakers so I can turn the music down and then back up when you are speaking.

    So nice to follow you. Inspiring and I'll probably be sailing in the same areas before too long.
    Sometimes I would like to know when the recordings are done.
    Is it summer or autumn?
    Thanks

      Thank you! This was filmed at the end of August 2022. Summer forgot to arrive in the Outer Hebrides!

    Hi, that's a lovely video. Would you mind putting details into the narration like: How much does it cost per day/week when you pull into a harbour? Are there rules and regulations you have to observe when sailing to various islands? For instance, if you find a nice sheltered cove can you simply sail in, drop the anchor, and stay for a night or several? Are you free to go ashore on any islands, or which islands aren't you? I realise you may not know the absolute answers to some of the questions, and that some of it'll be a little gray lets say :) Details you know for sure would be nice. Great video, I love the concept of being free to roam. Safe journeys :)

      Thanks for your comment. There are other channels that cover more ‘guide style’ content, but this is not the intention of this channel. However, I can tell you that it is absolutely possible and legal to drop your anchor in any sheltered cove and then go ashore to explore. This is particularly the case in Scotland where the ‘right to roam’ act allows you, within reason, to walk pretty much anywhere and on any island unchallenged. ‘Freedom to roam’ not as a concept but as reality. Watch our autumn sailing episode to get an insight to how free we sometimes feel.

    The music is the only thing that lets down an otherwise excellent video.
