THE HEBRIDES - ARDNAMURCHAN (highest mountain)

ARDNAMURCHAN (highest mountain)

Well I jump forward a little here and I end up in a beautiful little place know as Salen. Salen is down into Loch Sunart and offers some beautiful views on the way down plus you will always find an anchorage. The little marina has a few berths and some mooring balls with decent showers and a shop. So why am I here? Well it’s to climb the biggest mountain on Ardnamurchan. I wanted to do this as I’ve sailed the notorious Ardnamurchan point now many times I’ve anchored round here a lot to. I’ve just wanted to really explore the life out of this place. It’s all really for a reason tho as I remember many years back when I first started sailing a guy kept niggling at me about how I couldn’t sail and had never rounded the point. The guy belonged to a Facebook drinking club know as sailing and cruising Scotland and the sister group sailing and cruising Northern Ireland. These guys use to think I made up the bad weather I’d encountered over time and wind speeds I’d seen but all was documented so I don’t know what these strange jealous people were thinking. I later left these groups and their drama behind. Thought I’d share that. These videos I share are as honest as I can be they are not edited to the point where it’s not as it was and I am me I’m not pretending to be someone I’m not. As I left plockton to head down here I just had a bad day are two so I had to set the camera down and let the wind and tides take away my bad days. So that’s why the video has jumped forward tho it’s an area you have cruised a lot with me. Sometimes I get some abuse about my videos but these videos are put out for free for all to watch they are done on a very small scale editing with very little equipment. You get to see every single day of a voyage and I’m not talking one clip a day they are in-depth look at real cruising and adventure. I don’t really get any backing on my go fund me page are my sailing PayPal so please keep that in mind. I have people that won’t subscribe to the channel but will watch everything and it’s they just don’t want to add to the channel as it would be seen to be helping you out. I also get so many that will not be seen in public as in Facebook are Instagram speaking to me. They will send me private messages about posts are videos and the reason they won’t is because they belong to the Facebook groups known as sailing and cruising Scotland and sailing and cruising Northern Ireland. Why? Well because the admin was removing everyone from their groups that was friends with me.How childish.Anyway had to share that with you all. This channel really is about loving life doing your best with what you have and staying positive. It’s also you seeing a guy living his life by his rules a free spirit a nomad an adventurer an explorer ......
