bad news for some people, saw it on TOP (as I believe it is called, I do not know if my use of this is right but hey ho!)
this is really bad timing/luck - some one's planned holiday is going to be affected, an unexpected challenging sail round the Mull for some!

I love the wee granddaughter to distraction - but I'd give a fair bit to be there just now!

In some ways it simplifies things. From previous discussion many (myself included) query the vale of the Crinan given (a) the cost, (b) the damage from rough sides, and (c) the difficulty - near impossibility - of single handing. That said, the Crinan has a certain appeal.
Hope they get the problem sorted soon.
