Inverness to Fort William – Day 5 - 17.9 nm

The morning is clear and calm - well at 6:30 it was..

The passage through the two locks at Lagan is easier than before as we are now falling and don’t have to throw the ropes up. We also have some decent wind now and it’s in a good direction so we get a proper sail on loch Lochy tacking backwards and forwards.

The wind is gusting to 20 knots but the boat is big enough to cope so we don’t need to reef and we scoot along. We arrive at Banavie and moor up on the pontoon at the top of Neptune’s Staircase and in sight of Ben Nevis.

We eat on board.
