We watched with some surprise yesterday afternoon as this beautiful yacht, with all sails set, moved majestically down the Sound past Tobermory lighthouse. Sadly she did not appear on the
AIS, so I don't know her name.
This shot of fishing trawler OB956,
Caralisa, gives a good idea why yachts are not a common sight in our northern winter.
Caralisa is a pelagic pair trawler, catching prawns and sprats. Although she's Oban registered, she's frequently seen in Mallaig harbour.
Also in the Sound a couple of days ago was this Sandown class minehunter,
HMS Ramsey, M110, photographed from the top of Sron Bheag, with Glengorm Castle in the background. Her home port is HMNB Faslane, on the Clyde.
