Thats a good bit further south, but a cracking area to explore

There are a few RIBnetters down that way I'm sure

I'll be in Ullapool for the 25th, but to catch the ferry to Stornoway. Would love to stop over for a night and launch on Loch Broom. Catching the early ferry - so you might see us.

Launched from there last year on my sib, cant see a problem with your rib there is a gate on the left of the road just past the campsite a track leads down to a pebble beach at the side of a concrete jetty there is also a large lay-by on the left just before the entrance to the campsite to park car and trailer

Answer from Ardmair

Thank you for your enquiry, we have availability on the dates you requested. You may book online at www.ardmair.com please complete the booking form and return to us, we will make you a reservation and send a confirmation by return.

We have a pebble slipway which you can launch from but you will need a 4 wheel drive vehicle, it is possible to leave the boat on the beach or anchor just off the beach, its usually safe but we accept no responsibility for your craft.

You may leave the trailer on the campsite but there would be a small daily charge.

The nearest petrol is in Ullapool 3 miles away.
