If you can get them to Kip marina on Friday PM or early Saturday, they would be in Argyll by Sunday PM and could be around the Oban area on Tuesday.

Thanks very much Bob. I have spoken to Stuart and it looks like this is a goer, so we can pop down to Kilmartin and pick them up next week or meet you in Oban if you prefer.
I love the internet.

Too late I think....but I will be in Central Glasgow until 4pm tomorrow, and then driving to Linnhe Marine tomorrow evening (Friday) getting there about 9pm....if that is any use..They could be left at Linnhe, for later pickup, but I suspect it is now all arranged.

Charts received from Stewart on Friday evening in a shady looking transfer in a layby off M80 and transported to Kip. Then sailed them to Cumbrae where they were handed on to Sliced Sausage for onward sail to Tarbert. As reproted are now safely on Argyll.

Thanks everyone - will phone The Sage today to arrange collection sometime this week. Is this why the Post Office is in trouble?
