The co-ordinator for the two-week event, Paul Carroll, says that seven boats have already decided to join the group. They will depart in a group on Friday af- ternoon -and --sail-- direct to Tobermory.. At the "Tub", other members of the family witl join the boats for the more en- joyable part of the trip. Paul and his wife Mary, and their two boys, are all veterans when it comes to cruising the North Channel and are• looking forward to the holiday, accompanied by all the other boats from our club.
