I'd be up for joining you, my long trip this summer has whetted my appetite for similar crossings. But its a hell of a long drive up and my concern would be making the wrong call upon arrival. A 10 hour drive up only to call it off, there'd be a lot of pressure to head out into unsuitable conditions.
On the other hand, you are 'only' 5 - 6 hours drive from the Lundy crossing I am planning on repeating this summer. And if conditions aren't perfect on the day there are plenty of other plan b's.
My outboard is getting stripped and serviced this winter and I should have a functioning auxiliary engine by the spring.
Hi Stigomery, great to hear your intended trip plans , hope you film the adventure , i'd be most interested in the footage after your 2016 epic film montage of our scottish sib trip,keep us informed of your plans and intended launch date , myself and James will be most interested , good luck, Matt.
