Montrose to Caterline jolly with Donny & Danny

[warder54]

Enjoyed a few hours out yesterday with the comedy duo!

A 1 hr run up to Caterline, a nice steady cruise at 24mph, slowed down here and there for Donny to have a look at the scenery, caves etc - pity it was low tide so we were unable to enter the bigger cave just North of Inverbervie, there is a rock shelf just under the surface as you pass through a small channel to enter the cave so that was a no go.
I couldn't find my camera bag before we left so I only have 2 snaps taken at the Pub at the top of the cliffs.

A Coke and a half of ale

10 Minutes later ;-)

The trip back took about 2.5 hrs as the breeze had picked up considerably so 10mph was a comfortable speed and we were in no hurry, could have picked up the pace if needed but why suffer?
Donny was surprised at the Smartwave being easier to retrieve than his SIB
So it was back to my place for tea before Donny had to head for home.
A very enjoyable trip in good company.

Hi again Mike (Warder) ..yup..you are right..it was easier launching the large boat than my large SIB..because the large boat is floated on and off its trailer..with the engine and everything in it. I am still muck around fixing engines etc. when I launch my SIB

Thanks again for the invite and day out ..I really enjoyed it..and it was lovely meeting both you and Danny again.

I also think you are correct..in that Danny and Donny are the sea going equivalent of Morecambe and Wise (Only we are both still alive..just)

Here is my contribution to the day out. I didn’t take much video footage.. but still managed a short fishy tale of the day

Many thanks again for the day at sea ..it was appreciated...and it was great meeting you all again

Nicely done Donny - quick production too
Yep an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon. A pity the sea wasn't as calm for the whole trip as it was at the start.
