Thnx, this is very helpfull.
It shows once more, as several of you have already suggested, that you can spend many months here. It will be difficult to chose!

Have a look at Cruising Scotland, A Companion to the CCC Sailing Directions. Just what you need to whet the appetite ;-)

Now you have had such useful free advice, you will now have to keep a blog of your journey so we can all 'travel' with you
See you on the way round [anticlockwise of course]

Your timing is perfect, Johan. I ordered the book a couple of days ago - though Bol.com, would you believe – and it arrived yesterday. My appetite is as wet as it can be! ;-)
PS: I guess your “old” boat is sold?

Absolutely right, I’ll keep you all informed! Probably on this forum, I don’t have a website.
And we will keep a sharp lookout for the Capi D’or (what type and colour is she?)

Yes, I'm pleased she has found someone who will take good care of her.

Jakeroyd,
thanks for the Penguin Boltholes info'. Have added to our growing info for 'Round Britain' ........this summer with any luck.
Hope to see you around 'sailingjoy', look out for our Tradewind - Ambler of Arne,
As a general info/guidance book we've so far found Sam Steeles 'UK and Ireland circumnavigators guide' as good as any.
cheers

Ambler of Arne will be on our list!
We are a Dutch Etap 34, white hull, grey sails, called Joy.
I bought Sam Steeles book this summer, somewhere on the way to the Scillies, very nice.

Keep a lookout for a free booklet called "Welcome Anchorages" you can get it from the Sail Scotland stand at the boatshow. Or may be found on their website

Yep, thanks, got it in pdf. It looks great, I'll try to get the 2012 version in hard copy.
