Port Edgar (Edinburgh) to Fort William in the Scottish Highlands At last, after six years on the hard (in a cradle on land) at Port Edgar Marina, we finally launched Toucan on August 10, 2022. It was a long slog to service or replace all the electronics, and overhaul...

by | 3rd January 2017 | Sailing Adventures | 0 Comments

We were now living in Scotland looking after my mum who had Alzheimers and Toucan was still in the Caribbean. We decided to bring the boat over to Scotland, but Deb had to stay behind to look after mum, and that meant I would have to single-hand sail the boat across...

Sailing the Caribbean (Rough Guide)

by | 20th December 2015 | Sailing Adventures | 0 Comments
