    hello@goingthewholehogg.com
    In July we spent a week aboard Bessie Ellen, sailing 193 miles around Scotland's Inner Hebrides on this magnificent 120 year old West Country trading ketch. We learned the ropes, indulged in outstanding food, and explored the islands of Mull, Colonsay, Oronsay, Jura, Luing, Easdale and Kerrera. We slept onboard, along with 10 fellow guests, 3 crew members, skipper Nikki, and salty sea dog/chief dolphin sniffer, Bracken.
    The character of the boat, beauty of the Hebrides, excitement of learning new skills, and wonderful hospitality made this sailing adventure one of our most memorable trips to date. A huge thanks to VentureSail Holidays and Nikki for inviting us aboard to document the journey and experience our first ever hands-on sailing trip. We're hooked!

    I've said it before, but without a doubt you are the best 'outdoors' film makers I know. This is especially delightful - I had a week on Bessie Ellen in June 2022, and you've captured life on board perfectly. And that's on top of the stunning shots of the scenery.

    Great filming as always , bet it was great to see the Inner Hebrides from another perspective! Brought back lovely memories of Easdale and Colonsay and Oronsay ( we didn’t have enough time to visit the beautiful beach you were on / swimming in the sea , as had to hurry up before the tide came in ! )Lovely to see it from the other side of the island . Food looked amazing, weather looked on your side too and loved Bracken the dog . Your filming / editing is amazing on all your vlogs but particularly love Scotland, it’s our favourite place in the world xx

    • @GoingTheWholeHogg
      @GoingTheWholeHogg  8 місяців тому

      Yeah it absolutely was fantastic to see the islands from this perspective, and nice to have visited them as a bit of a surprise, as the itinerary just depended on the winds and weather! Would love to go back and visit them all again for longer. Not having to worry about the tide was the beauty of visiting Oronsay by boat! The food was incredible, worth the trip just for the daily feasts, and Bracken never failed to make us smile. Thank you for your lovely feedback about our work, and happy to hear you've had the pleasure of visiting this area for yourself! Hopefully plenty more Scotland videos to come in the future : ) Kim

    Wholly guacamole! How much does a trip like this cost? It's gotta be life's savings territory, like twenty or thirty thousand dollars. I bet you have to have real connections to get on this lovely boat.

      You can check out their website bessie-ellen.com for trips and prices. Mostly about £550 - £1600 between 4 - 10 days.
