    I don't think I've seen this video before as I like your videos so much I always give you a like and it does not allow you like again. I spoke to about going here once in early 24 and one of the worse summers for a very long time. For me the waves where too big for my honwave t38ie3. You told me I should of gone and if I don't try those wave I will never get experience and as long as everything is tied up tight I would be alright. Watching this video make it on my list for 2025, Thanks for sharing Donny Ray K UK YNWA.

    I've wanted to see the Corryvreckan ever since I lived in Lochgilphead,over 40 years ago.

    Like many people i feel privileged to see your escapedes up n doon the waters with scenic views of landscape inclusive, However,that trip had my jam tart racing and worried I'd do something childish when i saw they frightening tides around you both. Lots of thanks for original product with a birds eye view all for free to enjoy. Great stuff.

      @@donnywilcox Hiya Donny, Thanks for taking the time to reply, and better you than myself in these waters. Did you manage to do the rib run last week? I just had a call from my son Calum to say how much he enjoyed the day but unfortunately due to fog the Sunday was cancelled and he returned home a tad earlier. Perhaps I'll have to borrow a rib for next year, and I'm still struggling to renovate my wee boat mainly down to the costs of materials nowadays so I'm just doing it grudgingly slow progress. I'll look forward to the rib run video when it's out on UA-cam. Thanks again.Robert.

    Pick your tides used to take family to cullipool on luing for our holls took our zodiac through the grey dog and corry always picked the tides and it was just a trip we liked to finish with afternoon tea on garvellachs still remember the beehive cells and the little head stone. But in the seventies and eighties did a lot of paddling and camping around Jura, Islay Mull etc with the kayaks we would take on the choppy bits doing pop outs in the grey dog, still got the slides great times with a bunch from Durham kayak club ( where have we all gone now)
