Farewell to Ailsa.

 As we left Ailsa Craig, a light wind helped our progress back to the Ayrshire coast.

 By the time we were half way across the wind had begun to drop and...

 ...we completed the crossing in flat calm conditions. Donald had motored on ahead of us as he faced a long slog up the beach with his boat.

 All too soon we were weaving our way through the Lendalfoot skerries...


...and made landfall at the end of another fantastic voyage to Ailsa Craig.

As we completed our packing, we left Ailsa Craig floating on a dreamy sea, with the cries of the birds still ringing in our ears.
