Thursday 20 July
The crew decided a good leg stretch was long overdue, and puttered across to the fish quay to scramble up a ladder before following the road for a mile and a half across the isthmus into the attractive town of Tarbert, not to be confused with West Loch Tarbert, or any of the others: this is the one famous for Loch Fyne oysters and fish restaurants at least as far South as Twickenham in SW London. 
A very good lunch with local beer was enjoyed, with a view over the pretty harbour, at the Islay Frigate Hotel. The waitress had been for a run that morning and photographed a beautiful yacht lying at anchor…me! Provisions were gathered on the way home.
