#15 | Canna to Dunvegan - Magnificent Sunrise and Mysteries of Dunvegan Castle

Welcome back to our sailing adventure aboard Polaris! In this episode, we set sail from the enchanting island of Canna, cruising around Neiss Point Lighthouse, and heading towards Loch Dunvegan on the stunning Isle of Skye. Join us as we embark on another captivating journey filled with breathtaking sights and intriguing discoveries. As we navigate the calm seas, we are blessed with the most awe-inspiring sunrise over the Small Isles. The golden hues paint the sky, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for our voyage. However, our journey takes an unexpected twist as we encounter a magnetic anomaly that plays havoc with our ship's compass. We share the challenges and adjustments we make to ensure a safe and accurate navigation despite this magnetic interference. Our destination is the magnificent Loch Dunvegan, situated on the northwestern corner of the Isle of Skye. Here, we find the renowned Dunvegan Castle, the ancestral seat of the MacLeod Clan for over 800 years. We anchor just off the castle, immersing ourselves in its rich history and legends. One particular story that captures our imagination is that of the fairy flag of the MacLeod Clan, said to possess mystical powers and protect its owners. We delve into the lore surrounding this cherished artifact and learn about its significance to the clan's heritage. During our stay near Dunvegan Castle, we are delighted to once again encounter a vibrant wildlife neighborhood. Seals gracefully swim in the surrounding waters, gannets soar overhead, and cormorants perch along the shoreline. We capture stunning footage of these incredible creatures, showcasing the diverse marine life that calls this area home. Join us on this captivating voyage as we navigate the seas, witness a breathtaking sunrise, explore the history of Dunvegan Castle, and embrace the wonders of the natural world around us.

We are Kathrin and Daniel sailing, cruising and living aboard our sailing yacht SV Polaris Helvetica, a 14m Bavaria Cruiser 46 from 2017. We left our native Switzerland and moved to the UK almost two decades ago. In 2021, in our mid 50-ies and after our three boys left the nest we made the big decision to leave the rat race in London and to make our beloved sailboat our primary floating residence. Over the years we added a generator, got rid of the propane gas cooker and replaced it with an electric stove and oven, changed our house battery bank to Lithium (LiFePo, Lithium Iron Phospate), added a 1,200W solar arch and a water maker. With these upgrades Polaris is now a comfortable home allowing us to cruise the coast of the United Kingdom and, most recently, Scoland, in comfort, summer and winter. Kathrin loves to cook and bake on board, you will see some of her cookery wonders across our episodes, and makes good use of her Thermomix cooker. We totally fell in love with our new lifestyle although we had to make some tough decisions. We vacated our rental house in London and sold and gave away all our furniture and belongings that had no space on Polaris. It is a very liberating feeling to be able to say that all we own is with us on our small sailing boat. There's nothing else to care about. We enjoy our freedom and exploring new places, discovering their history and we love making new friends along our way.
