I had phoned Tim Loftus as we sailed towards Rubha Reidh on Wednesday, and told him we would be arriving in Ullapool that evening. He was happy to meet us on Thursday in Ullapool between 08:30 and 09:00 and discuss what we wanted doing.
We had a good meeting, and it turned out that the tides were perfect for hauling Robinetta out at the yard either that evening or Friday morning. Julian and I needed to head south to fetch our car so we could clear Robinetta's cabin, and the best bus to take us left Ullapool at 10:00. We would not be able to get back until Friday afternoon...
Not a problem. We left Robinetta in Tim's capable hands, and he moved her and Worm to his yard, where we found them on Friday afternoon. Robinetta was already under cover, with her mast out (less work for us)!
I will update the blog with progress on the work, but meanwhile our Year End totals this year are
Distance traveled 555nm
hours under way 175
Engine hours 108
