We loved the cruise. The weather went from bad (day 1-2) to glorious and the wonderful crew (Skipper Charlie, Lynsey, Chef Charlie and Sofia) adapted accordingly, from sheltering in a very protected inlet on the first night to prosecco and homemade cheese straws on a beautiful deserted beach in the sunshine at the end. The scenery is stunning and the wildlife sightings were good for the time of year - dolphins, porpoises, a minke whale, eagles, gannets...Lynsey is a brilliant spotter and very knowledgeable. We enjoyed the walks, which gave us a little insight into each island, and the food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Thank you all for being a great team and for looking after us so well.

Our cruise to St Kilda was a huge success. We made it safely to these wonderful isles thanks to James and his experience of the Hebridean weather and what a day we had there. Bright sunshine with no wind and a spectacular walk with magical views and then a fantastic cruise around Boreray and the stack with calm seas and thousands of birds. James provided us with a sunny day on the Shiants and we also had some lovely walks on Vatersay, Scarp, Isay and around the Viking canal at Rubha an Dunain. Lindsay’s ability to spot wildlife was amazing and as always we really enjoyed her company up on the fly deck. Jaya’s food was perfect and Sofia could not have been more attentive. A wonderful trip, our 5th on Emma Jane and we look forward to many more.
