It is if you think about it but to us its not much different from the forth around Inchcolm and Oxcars lighthouse etc. I do like being out in the kayak.
We set out from Kidston park in Helensburgh on Rhu road lower, basically right on the sea front heading towards Rhu marina. Its actually next to the marina. Took us under 4 hours. Bear in mind that we were in no rush and kayaking at a leisurely pace. We also stopped off at Kilcreggan to have a lunch break, which was around 30-40 mins. so at a rush pace you could do it in under 3 hours. If you wanted to just visit the sugar boat Then you could be out & back at Helensburgh in about an hour & a half easy.
I was a child when it sunk(!) there have been several thoughts about just blowing it up over the years but now; its just a wreck on a sandbank... and hopefully wildlife haven!
What a great place to kayak! I would’ve loved to have seen that boat.. water is so calm too
It's a big bit of water out there on the Clyde when you're low down in a kayak!

It is popular with fishermen, especially people kayak fishing, so there most be plenty of fish life around it, and it does smell.
