Re: Wanna buy a Marina?
At around 170 Acres, the new owners have lots of land to develop space for motorhomes, caravans and camping, which I assume they would also want to use the LOTI. See the sales brochure outline of land in red. Of course we don't know what was finally agreed except the rental cottages were not include...

Re: Wanna buy a Marina?
Marina owners now fully on seat and have asked berth holders for comments via a survey with free text space. LOTI will open spring next year.

Re: Wanna buy a Marina?
Sounds like serious investment in Craobh is being made by the new owners. It looks like a new crane will be ordered and of course the recent announcement that LOTI has been purchased. No doubt they will want to see an uptake in berths, probably annual berths initially, as a lot of berths are summer ...

Hurrah!
Any news on when it will open?
The boat will be out the water for DIY jobs this winter, hence local sustenance will be appreciated.

Re: How Hot?
16.3 Celsius, Firth of Lorne, 2 miles east of Loch Spelve, at the moment. Yesterday, further south is was 17 celcius. Brand new Raymarine transducer for ST60 speed. High water temperature can be indicative of a failing sensor. Prior to the previous sensor failing it was reading over 30 Celsius. Just...

Re: Interesting plans from Calmac
Given the state of many highland and island roads, there's little point in making any improvement in the links to/between the islands. I note the the recent royal visit to Campbeltown avoided the Rest and be thankful in a way that's not available to many locals or visitors. Indeed. It is rather sad...

Re: Interesting plans from Calmac
Good on Shetland Islands Council for their forward thinking. I can't help but wonder about priorities and per capita value. Still, where others lead, the rest shall follow. Is this the start of a new Scottish Renaissance in public infrastructure? Don't give up your CalMac Island Hopper tickets yet. ...

Re: Lucys
Hopefully someone else will take over the site and run another eatery.
I read they are starting another place in Ardrishaig.
Always enjoyed Lucy’s food and atmosphere.
