Having taken the place of first lady in the Coquet Island Race, Kate Duffus is now spending the summer working as an instructor in the Outer Hebredies. Kate kindly sent some photos from a reconaisance trip to St Kilda by RIB.
"It was amazing. A wonderful atmospheric place to explore and an exhilarating boat ride to get there. This trip was without kayaks, just exploring on foot when we got there, but I'm hoping to get out again soon with kayaks to go exploring the magnificent cliffs and arches by paddle power.
The boat trip takes between one and a half and two hours from Griminish Harbour on North Uist to Village Bay on St Kilda. Around the islands we saw loads of puffins and thousands of gannets, hardly surprising as St Kilda is the worlds biggest gannetry. On the way back we saw dolphins."
