Moorings on Loch Moidart

[nevis]

When i was at Oban Marine earlier in the summer i saw on their notice board an ad for moorings on Loch Moidart with a telephone no,unfortunately i didnt make a note of it,any of the forumites here who might have it.I visited Loch Moidart in June i think it would make a great base for next year.

Have you rung Oban Marine and asked them?

No i thought some of the local guys might have some info and failing that i will ring them. By the way why the fu**ck have you responded with some useless reply.

he was only trying to help you.

 

[Fascadale]

I was going to suggest that Loch Moidart is not the easiest place to get to but having seen your reply to another helpful comment maybe I shouldn't.

With an attitude like that, let him do his own research

What a wonderful response, truly enriching the content of this forum.

You probably want Loch Moidart Mooring Association, a member of WHAM*. What is idiotic about ringing Kerrera and asking for the number off their notice-board? They might tell you if you say "please". I can't imagine the local guys appreciating your attitude much.

*Not the somewhat androgynous pop duo!

Famous last words...............

Camelia, Note that the OP is not Scottish but he will be on the waiting list for the Yorkshire charm school, Awol will be along to explain where he should go.
I am not sure if Loch Moidart is really ready for so much Yorkshire charm, but I suppose if he goes there they might be relieved in Loch Creran.

At the risk of getting my nose bitten off...

I do not agree that the entrance to Loch Moidart is easy. A number of the rocks are quite difficult to identify, and in poor visibility the whole exercise would be far from trivial. An excellent Antares chart is now available, however, which helps greatly - providing the power doesn't go down at an inconvenient spot...

I think, however, that the point Fascadale was making is that if you keep your boat in Loch Moidart for a season then you will be going back and forward to it by car, and Loch Moidart is fairly remote with the journey involving either a ferry crossing or a long detour if (when) you miss the last one. There is no public transport that I know of.

with a stupid response like that perhaps I will in future do my own response,its perfectly reasonable to ask the question on a forum dedicated to sailing and related matters when a number of people on here have local knowledge,perhaps I should not have used strong language but the fatuous answer irked me.there are a lot of posters on here asking the same questions day in and day out and they get a reasonable answer

I know its a member of WHAM but the list does not include the phone no.Like I said earlier his answer was
not helpful

This is NOT the Lounge!
If you want to get the best from people, it's probably best not to swear at them. Can I suggest a period of quiet reflection before you come back here, and you can take "here" in possibly more than one way.
