Whole Boat Charter - Oban

Saturday 13th till Friday 19th June

Guest Comments:

There were 12 of us in Noah’s Ark,
We had such fun, what a lark!
We travelled all the Western Isles,
The weather fine, all had smiles,
Glen Massan of The Majestic Line
fed us well and oh, the wine
Available all day and night,
In the morning not so bright!
Andrew, Dougie, Moira and Martin,
The latter being the perfect captain,
Sailed us all from Oban to Staffa
And brought us back again after!
We had a great time on the boat
And managed fine to stay afloat!
There were no days of constant rain
And we all want to come back again!
