traditional grounds for their Easter 2025 cruise – the wild and magnificent west coast of Scotland and the Hebridean Islands. We’ll embark at the familiar Dunstaffnage Marina, near Oban. From this convenient stepping off point, our possible cruising area ranges north to Loch Broom and Ullapool, west to the remote anchorages of the Outer Hebrides and south, possibly as far as the Mull of Kyntyre.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSail in some of the world’s best cruising grounds\u003c/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe actual itinerary in April will be strongly influenced by the weather but, however the wind is blowing, the possible locations to visit and anchor are endless. They include the Isle of Skye, the Isle of Iona, the Small Isles such as Canna, as well as beautiful anchorages like Tinker’s Hole, Acairseid Mhor, and Puilladobhrain.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLook out for vibrant marine life\u003c/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWherever our course takes us, there are plentiful opportunities to see wildlife. Penguin crews regularly report sightings of marine animals including orca and minke whales, dolphins, otters, guillemots, puffins and white-tailed eagles. And it’s always worth keeping a look out for golden eagles and wild geese on a fly-by.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eJoin a shore party\u003c/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose who like an interesting shore trip may feel the magnetic pull of the distilleries of Tobermory, Talisker, and the Isles of Raasay, Jura and Islay. Or they may be just as enchanted by the possibility of exploring the silver Am Mialagan beach at Sanday, Canna, setting foot on the Shiants, or watching the sea sparkle with bioluminescence on a starry night.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTake a dip?\u003c/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven at sub 10ºC sea temperatures, some hardy Penguins have been known to willingly take the plunge into crystal Hebridean waters at Skye’s Loch Scavaig and Mull’s Tinker’s Hole.

group, so a week\u0027s cruise gives the option of either setting out on the northern or southern route. \u0026nbsp;Generally, the islands are a day\u0027s sail apart, adding to the attraction of cruising in this area. \u0026nbsp;The northern islands are less influenced by tourism, with traditional fishing ports and quiet waterfronts. \u0026nbsp;A possible itinerary would be: Kos-Lakki, Leros (27nm)-Lipsi (11nm)-Skala, Patmos (12nm)-Levitha (20nm)-Kalinmos (27nm)-Kos(10nm). \u0026nbsp;The southern islands include the holiday islands of Rhodes, but also include Simi with its Venetian harbour, volcanic Niseros and the secluded island of Tilos. \u0026nbsp;A suitable itinerary would be: Kos-Kamari, Kos (15nm)-Tilos (40nm)-Rhodes (30nm)-Symi (32nm)-Niseros (23nm)-Kos (23nm). \u0026nbsp;The final choice of the sailing itinerary will, of course, be determined by the prevailing conditions and the preferences of the crews. \u0026nbsp;We aim to provide a combination of

Working watches are likely to be necessary so we can cover the miles during long days and through the night on a few occasions.This cruise will appeal to Penguin members who enjoy open ocean sailing day and night to reach a goal, are comfortable living on the slant and want to sample something more challenging.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\u0022ltr\u0022\u003eThese challenges should not be underestimated. The itinerary requires us to complete the trip and return the boats back to Alba Sailing in Dunstaffnage in two weeks. The tides, weather and sea conditions in this part of Scotland could make that goal difficult. Hence the need to make a crew changeover halfway through the trip was seen as too much of a risk. Therefore this cruise is a two-week trip with no crew changeover. However, this offers the chance to get to know one\u0027s fellow crew members and to really grow together as a crew.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\u0022ltr\u0022\u003eThe Risk-Management Committee has assessed the cruise risk as\u0026nbsp;\u003cstrong\u003eHigh,\u003c/strong\u003e primarily\u0026nbsp;because of the long-passages and potentially adverse sailing conditions.\u0026nbsp; The risk is still considered acceptable.
