He’s set to whet your appetite for the Western Isles in 2025, followed by some Q. & A.

Nigel has been cruising in Europe for some time and spent several summers on the West Coast of Scotland. First arriving, via the Caledonian Canal, in 2012.

Few of us have ever gone to sea without at least one publication by Nigel Calder on board! So now enjoy his all encompassing eye on this great cruising ground.

We are grateful to Nigel for fitting us in prior to Nada’s fitting out for his next Summer cruise in Europe. Nada IV is currently on the south coast of Ireland.

We have had to make a change to the registration location for the start of the Western Isles cruise.

The cruise will now start and finish at the Kerrera marina which is in Oban Bay.  Hopefully you will find this more convenient as there is a direct rail link from Glasgow to Oban.

The Clyde Cruising Club, the Royal Highland Yacht Club, the Irish Cruising Club and the Royal Cruising Club have all volunteered to help with events and we look forward to their members joining us for the cruise.

Scotland is famed the world over for its stunning anchorages, friendly harbours, moorings and
marinas. Albeit the weather can be temperamental and sailing conditions may be lively, the
outstanding scenery combined with armfuls of places to visit make this one of the really outstanding
cruising venues to explore.

The CCA has not ventured to Scotland for some time but participants in the 2010 Clyde Cruising Club
centennial cruise will recall the amazing hospitality that was a constant feature.

If you are interested, it would be very helpful if you could complete the Preliminary Interest Survey.

Thank you
