We left Sannox to paddle down the east coast of Arran to the ferry terminal at Brodick.
We were surrounded by torrential rainstorms...
which turned the sky black and chilled the air.
We always see a seal basking on the rocks at Corrie. In the distance the MV Stadiongracht, a 172m cargo boat, was making its way from Brodick Bay up the Clyde to Greenock.
Off Merkland Point, we got a great view to Holy Island and the distant Ayrshire coast. The entrance to Loch Ryan could be seen to the left of the steep slopes of Holy Island.
