Weather conditions were variable on the way round the Mull, with some crews turning bright green owing to choppiness. Carna continued in their tradition of pure sailing, having initially managed to correct the fuel leak but been defeated by the battery gremlins. They graciously declined an offer by John Mactaggart to tow them to a mooring with his 2-oar-power dinghy, insisting on sailing onto the buoy under the masterly steering of Ray Mitchell (at only the second attempt!). However, they were grateful for the offer of a tow under engine power from Stargazer on the way back when the wind died.
