    "welcome to a beautiful summers day" while wearing 3 coats, a hat and a scarf! Eileen Donan castle with Florence in the background is something special.

    Your musical selection is absolutely brilliant, you have a great ear for matching the mood and the scenery, I shouldn’t be surprised really, it goes with your fantastic cinematography. I am really enjoying your British circumnavigation 👍😎👍

    As an Englishman, a Scot once told me there’s no ‘K’ in Loch.
    Really enjoying your videos, I’ve sails the Scottish west coast for more than 15 years and still haven’t seen everything. Beautiful part of the world

    Ah, the difference between a castle easily reached by road and another best reached by boat!
    So glad you kept faith with Scotland despite the worst summer for years ... wonderful to see your experience of familiar cruising grounds. Beautifully shot as ever. And top boat handling, of course.

    Enthusiastic about the perfect sailing, “We don’t have any sun; but it’s Scotland”, hands up…sheesh. I guess sailing 55,000 miles helps you appreciate the precious wonder of sailing Florence. Thank you for sharing your Florence…from an old vet, retired in the US foothills of the Smoky Mountains.

    A brilliant video, magnificently filmed. Scotland really isn't like that all the time! Right now (nov 8) we are the warmest place in the Uk and while F2 is probably not enough for Florence it blows my Phantom along very nicely! We had 5 hours sunshine today. Thanks very much for your story.

    You both are expert sailors and have sailed around the world so I am sure your level of expertise is in the top 1%. However I think your cinematography skills may have exceeded that. Every video is better than the last!🤩

    You can have bananas or good weather, but not both! Great video, we loved our time sailing Scotland’s west coast in the 2013 Classic Malts Cruise. Especially Lochs Moidart and Scavaig. And the old inn at Inverie.

    Loch Moidart looks quite different on Antares charts than what we thought was the reality. Also the walk to Acharacle is longer than you are led to believe! Bill

    That's one of your most unique videos, and it backs up my claim that Scotland is unique, even in the European context.!
    Unusually you've sailed well inland, but that's part of the issue - the average tourist would have difficulty defining where mainland ends and the islands begin. There are even islands in some LOCHS and there are more in LAKES (of-course not covered in your film).
    I have never seen weather like that in ANY of my trips to Scotland - in previous years always basking in sunshine, occasionally TOO hot. I never have worn anything other than shorts and Tshirt in Scotland, however at sea it could be more challenging.
    I've had a plastic mac and leggings in my bag, but never used them once.
    This year has been a real b...... in Britain as you have been experiencing, but dont let that put off your viewers.
    There are years when it's totally the reverse.
    Ok, looking forward to two weeks time.

    @rickjanicki3705 4 часа назад

    I think this is one of my favourite Videos so far, the wildlife, the scenery and best of all Amy's reaction to the wild swim! Be honest, how many swears did you edit out? Question - do you still use that rudder, plank, wind thing?

  • @gavinferguson
    @gavinferguson 3 часа назад

    ha ha that looks like fairly normal sailing weather for Scotland nothing more fun than hearing a weather forecast on the radio saying gale force 8 imminent and seeing the barometer move as you watched it mid way between barra and oban in full sun btw the castle is pronounced eel an doe nan

    Hello! I love your videos. I seen them all but since you’re selling up around England after refit, something is wrong with the contrast of your images, it is to dark and too contrasted… 🤔
    Everything else is beautiful. Félicitations…
