So here it is, the first proper paddle of the outing, and it was a stunner. This place is really something else, can't think of anywhere in the UK like this, perhaps The Slieve League, but that is in Eire. The weather was fantastic............right up until we launched!! It was a choppy ride over, and even more choppy coming back, but this Cetus is absolutely made for me, and I can take much more of the choppy stuff now. The first thing you realise, when you do this paddle, is the amount of time it takes to reach the head of the Sea loch. The scale of the place is staggering, and you begin to wonder if something is holding you back, it isn't, it's just Mother Nature, and Physics and stuff. At the head of the Loch, you encounter the river emptying out of Loch Coruisk. It's only a few hundred yards, but is quite boggy in places, but the view is about the best I've seen in the UK so far. The Salty Seadogs, who set out at the same time as us, actually carried their boats right up to paddle Loch Coruisk, and planned to camp out overnight. Don't know how they got on, but I presume, not very well, as a Northerly wind got up, and stayed with us for the next 4 days approaching Gale force at times, then it dropped to nothing as you can witness for yourselves in the upcoming videos.
