Jetskis buzz around the ferry. Arran's mountains in the background
|

The jetskiers
used our ferry's bow waves for jumps, till we were half way across. |

Stewart and Adrian arrive, more sedately, at Mull
on Friday

Barbecue on the pier at Lamlash on Saturday evening
|

We watch the day's last ferry leaving Brodick on Saturday |

The night watch was quiet - only 2 boats came between midnight and 4am
but the time passed quickly thanks to Tunnocks snowballs and the other
marshals! |

A few hours later we returned to find Adam and Dermot beating Adrian and
Stewart's overall run time. |

They ignore the SLOW sign on the road |

Elsie beat them back to the pier
|

But where is their dingy? Their sailors had fallen asleep! |

Carnethy's 'Balamory' youth team on Mull.
|

We left to climb Goatfell before Paula was needed for her next watch
and met Dave and Kate coming back along Brodick's main street.
|

Then Phil Davies and Jon Whitaker whisked past us at the bottom of the
track up Goatfell |

Glenalmond youth team descend Goatfell.
|

The view from the top, towards Jura. |

The Paps of Jura clearly visible, didn't seem that far away (as the seagull
flies!) |

The boys from Tobermory were well up amongst the leaders. |

But their 'master' didn't trust this one not to wander off! |

The summit is on the left.
|

Four 'allrounders' (where the sailors run or is it the runners sail?)
|

Could you make it look like we're running? |

A strange rock lizard. |

The Tobermory team leave Goatfell behind. |

The marshals return to base..
|

..and the ferry departs Brodick
