Sailing events

There are various sailing events during the summer that if you are cruising you may want to avoid, or you may want to join in. Either way you need to know when and where they are:

Classic Malts Cruise  is a well established cruise in company between several coastal distilleries - Oban, Talisker on Skye and Lagavulin on Mull.

Crinan Classic Boat Festival  is a relatively new event based on Crinan and held in early July, of course you have to have a classic boat to participate.

Round Mull Race is a rather good three day passage race from Oban to Tobermory on the Friday, to Bunessan on the Saturdaay and then a long leg back to oban on the Sunday which often seems to get shortened for lack of wind. It is in early July.

Scottish Islands Peaks Race is my favourite and I have been doing it since 1991 - a very amusing and tiring weekend in mid May.

West Highland Yachting Week is the big one week event with several hundred boats racing and lots of jolly shore parties from Craobh Havent to Oban to Tobermory and back to Oban.
