It's in the bay at Badachro. We spotted it on our trip there a couple of days ago but not able to post on here from my phone.

It looks like it's been laid up for the winter as high up the bay it can get and dries at low tide. Looks to be a fin keel with yacht legs and the port leg has failed. It's right over on it's side at low water, I didn't wait to high tide to see if she comes up fully or is taking on water.

Sorry didn't get the boats name.
 
Might be worth posting to a Scottish sailing group on Facebook for a wider audience and awareness
 
I don't know of one that's why I posted it here so others can spread the word using whatever groups they know and that way the owner might find out before it is too late.
Sorry I would have done it but left them all when we headed south so glad it got sorted. Worth finding the local groups on FB theres a lot going on usually.
