Rob, I felt that we must write to thank you whole-heartedly for the memorable 8 day cruise around the Hebrides on Proud Seahorse, which you organised and skippered so successfully last week. We much admired your calm control in even changing weather (and forecasts), your knowledge and personable company and your patience in dealing with an eldery group of passengers.

What a brilliant cruise out beyond St Kilda, along the Rockall Shelf edge and round the top of Lewis and into the Minch. Three kinds of Dolphin, Basking Sharks, Minke Whales and a distant Fin Whale were the some highlights. Bird life rewarded us with the St Kilda wren and a juvenile Barred Warbler whilst on Hirta on the island, four types of Shearwater and a Sabine’s Gull. Elizabeth G was well suited for the challenges of our extended sailing times and the unpredictable seas off the north western islands of Scotland. The crew of James, Conor, Lynsey and Charlie were all brilliant in their navigating, guiding, cooking and supporting the guests getting the most out of our research expedition cruise. Thank you
