Started & finished my Day Skippers course for a week along the Caledonian Canal before heading out around the islands 20 years ago. at the time it was the hottest week on record for end of May at 94F. So hot and no wind we only got the sails up twice for about 20 minutes. However, the highlight was taking the dingy right into Fingal's Cave. Shortly after, Customs & Excise came by our boat asking if we had seen anything suspicious. We happened to mention we had been into Fingal's Cave and they then left to go and take a look. Took them an hour to back out of there as there boat was about 3 foot longer than ours and they couldn't turn around like we could. Made us laugh....
Sorry for the thread drift.
