Our Instagram Feed
We are often away on the water a long way from WiFi, and keep up-to-date posting our news to Instagram. You can get a flavour of our adventures here and by following us!
Taransay sunset, St Kilda tomorrow. Enjoy the Scottish West Coast with SailBadachro,
0400 hours. Climbers ashore in Loch Na Cluice (Scavaig, Skye). They are doing the Cuillin Ridge in 16 hours. I’m off with La Girafe to do the 57 mile passage to pick them up in Loch Slighan at the other end. All in a days work here at SailBadachro. Hope to see happy customers at the other end.
A few shots from our final trip of the year. Visiting the Summer Isles then down to Rona and Torridon. Fantastic sailing with some moody weather in stunning scenery. A lot of Dolphin action and an absolute thrill...being followed by a lone Bluefin Tuna for around 45 minutes. Never seen that behaviour before. So next trip is down to Clyde Marina where La Girafe will be wintered. Our adventures and RYA courses for 2021 are advertised on our website www.sailbadachro.com. Places are booking up fast!

A few pictures from our local meanderings around the Minch recently. Red Point South in the entrance to Loch Torridon. Rona and the Anchorage at Acairsaid Mhor with a short walk over to visit Church Cave on the east side of the Island. Stunning weather. Back to running RYA courses next week. Fully COVID compliant with maximum of three students from a single household. #skipperedcharter

La Girafe now ready for the water, she is due to be launched by the yard staff @Clyde Marina today. We are still unable to offer our RYA courses or Skippered Charter programme but it will be nice to get her out for a sail ourselves. #skipperedcharter

Not a bad job when this is the sort of view you get from your office window. We will be back in this office as soon as coronavirus lockdown allows. Our RYA and skippered charter programmes for the end of the season and 2021 are on our website. Meanwhile we will be in our land based office fielding your enquiries. #skipperedcharter

Really calm day on the Outer Hebrides. Anchored just off Seilebost and scrambled ashore. The view is over to Luskentyre with North Harris hills in the background. Fantastic water clarity. #skipperedcharter

Fantastic full moon over the past few nights. Here contemplating life with faithful friends looking out towards the Outer Hebrides across the Minch. What a perfect night, stood there thinking about how good it would be out on the water. Realised that it’s easy wish your life away and miss the moment. There will be plenty of good times on the water when this is over! #skipperedcharter

Self isolating boat...sadly. This is a picture of her @ clydemarina just before she was stored ashore at the end of the last season. Hopefully get her sailing again soon. Our programme for the end of this season and 2021 are on our website. Get booking.

To keep our spirits up at SailBadachro while we cant go sailing we had a seafood dinner party. All the family are at home so why not! Invitations, posh frocks, menu the works. This is the quality of food you get when you are out sailing as well with us.

Sunset over the North Eastern point of Islay with Colonsay on the right. Just enough time to make the pilotage into West Loch Tarbert (Jura) before loosing the light.

No sailing at the moment but here are some photos of advection fog rolling into Badachro bay the other night. A large bank of fog had been lying out in the Minch all day. I’d rather watch it roll in from my garden than out at sea however. #skipperedcharter
