Worse than that, I didn’t even get it wet!
The boat needed collecting from Inverness and I had customer in Garve to meet so I thought a quick nip west would be a good idea.
Google maps shows a few slips dotted around the west but there’s no information about how useable they are, this was half way of a falling 6 metre tide, the ramp was already near its end and blocked at the bottom with a huge lump of chain anyway so I tried the beach, I decided against it, it was too slimy and it would be pretty much dead low water by the time I needed out, otherwise a wait untill7pm for ideal conditions. We went a walk instead and left the whole lot there but it rained heavily so when we came back, even those higher stones were slippery, compounded by the fact I forgot to turn off the traction control at first, I was doomed!
Thankfully, I’d already met a local young fisherman with a jeep, probably the only person of any use in the whole place, he was quick to my aid.
I still enjoyed the detour, it was less than an hour from where I had to be anyway and it’s a very pretty road and destination.
Ps. Sorry for the thread drift, the tenuous link was getting stuck and Wild West Scotland, nothing to do with rallying!
