If you're ever crossing the Minch again Tango, I'd love to join you. We were at the furthest most Summer Isles last weekend, 10 miles out of Ullapool and it was flat calm, Stornoway a mere 40 miles away. I know it's a hop skip and a jump for you guys, but having been on the Suilven in a F10 stranded outside Stornoway, I know the other side!

In Tarbert you were within reach if Isle of Harris distillery. Well worth a visit. Fantastic friendly people and great products. Their whisky should be nearing completion for first tasting.

Welcome any time.

Regards the distillery, my wive's family are from Harris and vaguely related to the management so we managed to swing an impromptu tour....excellent.

"Furthest Summer Isle"...Would that be Priest Island. Stunning.

I'll take you up on that.

My family are from Lewis. Hell, we're probably related!

Looking at Zodiac fuel bladders. Currently able to carry 60 litres, but want more!

We were further north between Eilean a Char and Glas-leac Mor.
