don't know, but that looks like the Brigantine 'Eye of the Wind', which incidentally is for sail sale.

Where in Scotland then? Don't know it but what an amazing picture. Somewhere on the Firth of CLyde and surrounding Lochs? Not Ardrishaig but somewhere like that.... Thanks for brightening up my day! |

The picture was taken in Oban, looking across the bay towards the North Pier, where this beautiful vessel was moored. I would have loved to have seen it under sail! What a picture that would have made!  |

Where in Scotland then? Just to the right of the pics is the Oban at war exhibition, free and very good. Oban had a seaplane base just beyond that ship, round the coast a bit, at Gannavan Sands. |

Mark You can see the weather in your shot! Dark and squally. Good image. Louise and I got knocked Flat by 42 kts of wind that day. Not really the kind of sailing couples on gentle cruises hope for! We loved it though! We went up to Dallen's Bay to hide from it for a night then sailed through it along the coast to Oban to errr, hide from it again! |
