Scottish Cruise - Trinity Sailing Thursday 28th Aug 2014 Day 6

Thick mist, overcast and raining this morning.
Still feeling stuffed this morning, I don't think I need much breakfast this morning. The plan today is to sail South down the Sound of Mull and into Loch Spelvie. We set off in miserable weather but it's soon starting to improve with a few sunny spells between the showers. The weather is clearing as we pass Duart Castle and into the Linn of Lorne. A cracking sail along to Loch Spelvie, main, mizzen, jib and staysail all set. My sketching today was mainly with water soluble graphite pencils and a wash brush as it's more controllable in the rain. Anchored in Loch Spelvie at 1700 after a great sail, got ashore for a walk and a couple of sketches before dinner. Feeling shattered and sunburnt this evening - nobody seemed to put on suncream because it was raining this morning.
