I don’t know if the Obsession is a local Islay boat or if she was visiting (if you know please leave a note in the comments), but I quite like the name. Also note the RNLI lifeboat in the background.
A view from the MV Hebridean Isles travelling down the Sound of Islay on a blustery day. Dunlossit Castle and Port Askaig as well as Jura ferry crossing the sound are visible in the middle distance. Behind it Sgarbh Breac, at 364m the highest hill in the north of Islay, can be spotted.
An older view of Port Askaig at the Sound of Islay, taken from the MV Isle of Arran. The new road, car park and waiting area had been finished at this time in 2005, but the new Jura ferry and small boat harbour pier as well as the new ferry terminal building were still to come.
