Tropic sailing in the Moray Firth

We're up at 7am to make the high tide, and exit Lossiemouth Harbour.
At 7:30 we're out on the Moray Firth, a beautiful sunny dawn. No wind, no clouds. We let "Babette" drift in the glassy blue-green sea. As we eat a leisurely breakfast at Café Babette". With a royal view towards the Seacove cliffs, where Mary Hovenden lives.

We crank up the Volvo Penta at 10am, and head towards Inverness and the Caledonian Canal. Another tropical sail in Scotland, now towards The Canal.

We are inside by 15:30. And go immediately up two locks. There we tie up at Seaport Marina. And meet two nice Swedish boat-neighbors, Urban and Jonas. As with all new boat friends they are generous with their experience and knowledge. They give us some good Navtex advice. Good weather reports could be life saving.
