The Clyde

[JumbleDuck]

The word on the West Coast is that it is so quiet this year because all the Clyde boats are staying at home to go up the Clyde for the Commonwealth Games and then vote early and often in the Referendum. Certainly with fine weather this week the Sound of Mull has been remarkably clear of yachts. Another possible reason is the demise of the Mishnish.
So perhaps the low numbers out here will be compensated by crowded anchorages to the south.

I think the Clyde season is starting late this year. I went in on Friday (hooray) but only half the moorings in Port Bannatyne are now occupied, and there is a lot of work going on in the boatyard as people get ready.
