Just back from wonderful trip with friends on the Lucy Mary. Beautiful weather, islands, scenery, anchorages, stunning beaches, lovely swimming, lots of birds and dolphins and the occasional minke whale. Our calm skipper James did everything to fulfill our wishes. His helpers and our minders, Will, Ru, Sam and Abbie looked after us so well and were great full too. Sam produced the most amazing delicious food. Lucy Mary is a great, comfortable boat and she cruises gently and quietly through the water. I’d highly recommend this trip and a big thank you to all

Emma was very helpful with the additional questions I had and the crew very helpful when boarding, made us feel very welcome. The itinerary was outstanding. We had Rob as skipper and his local knowledge of the area, wildlife and weather forecasts was invaluable as the itinerary was adjusted to fit in with the forecast conditions giving us best chance of landing on St Kilda. The two nights on St Kilda were the culmination of a 40 year ambition for me. All the crew were exemplary. I particularly enjoyed being able to visit the bridge from time to time and chat to Rob. Mark was a great bosun, nothing was too much trouble and he was particularly adept at pouring malt whisky, which was a skill was very much appreciated. It was also great to have Chris Gomersall along to show us where to look to see all the wonderful wildlife. It was extra special!
