Glencoe - 8th December





Glencoe - 8th December
With a forecast for 40 mph gusts, heavy showers and a temperature of 4 degrees this was not a meet for the faint hearted. However six made it for coffee at Crafts and Things (excellent scones) but only 3 were mad enough to go on the water. We put in at the Isles of Glencoe Hotel. The first lap of the islands went well and for a spell we could not see any white horses. For the second lap things changed and we got some impressive gusts in which we took shelter on one of the islets while we watched sheets of spray being driven past. One member ran out of puff and got a helping tow home. For those that missed it, it was an excellent learning experience!
