Loch Ranza, Arran

The forecast for today was some sun and, more importantly, less wind. There are only really three places for us to moor Jomima on Arran and none of them have a marina and they are all likely to give us a sleepless night in high winds. The closest point is Loch

Ranza and that is where we headed for. We managed to find a buoy, some distance from the all too regular ferry and its wash. We then lowered our tender and headed for the shore and a visit to the relatively new, and only, distillery on Arran. This proved to be a very pleasant visit and a suitable bottle was purchased. After a tasting we wobbled back to the dingy and

rescued it from the rising tide. The wind kindly dropped completely and we were able to enjoy the incredible sunset before heading for bed.
