Headed out for a wee cuppa and tour of some Islands on Loch Lomond yesterday, headed into the wind. This allowed for a a sail back.

Excellent photos. Looks like you had a great time. Thanks for sharing.


Oh and I love the sail BTW. Never seen one before. Nice relaxing return journey then

Sit back, pop up the sail, just stern rudder steer. Fast enough to surf some of the waves.

Very cool! I always enjoy seeing and reading your paddling and now canoe sailing adventures. Thanks for sharing. Music being a very personal influence, your first picture brings to mind the lyrics in Police's Synchronicity II.
