Many thanks for your patience in towing us back Andy
The main 90hp outboard started smoking and cut out and then the smaller auxilliary outboard snapped the attachment point on the transom would you believe.Couldn`t thank you all in person on the return as I was a bit seasick with the sideways motion of the good ship Glorious
Did have a quick word with Leon next to me and it transpired we had met about 33 years ago in Shenaval one night and wandered around the Fisherfield hills together
I think that the lump of granite you photographed may well have partly responsible for slowing the return journey as I had carried it back to the rib.That one,or one verysimilar,is now installed in my garden stream

No worries. Good to meet you again on the hill.

That was nice! Climbing Ailsa Craig is a long standing ambition of mine. One day.

Thanks. Definitely worth a visit.

Very informative, great birdlife shots and nice stitching! Tried to go last summer but just couldn't get a place on a boat. I wonder if there are any other cliff top walking possibilities to be had west or north of the summit.

Thanks. Probably not much walking possibilities to west or north.

I really enjoyed that, thanks for posting mountainsofscotland, most informative, I don't fancy the boat journey though

Best Ailsa pics I've seen so far.

Nice to see all these alternative reports posted by you, make me want to do them too

Fantastic!!
