From ceilidhs to beach barbeques, there is something to offer everyone. A chance not to be missed, the 9 day Cruise in Company offers the chance to call into a variety of ports, both large and small to sample the best of Scottish hospitality and scenery. A Unique Cruise in Company Every year a Cruise in Company leg is part of The Tall Ships Races. This leg is not a competitive event, but a cruise of friendship and adventure. In 2011, the Cruise in Company leg is between Greenock and Lerwick and ships have 9 days on this 484 nautical mile journey (shortest route) over the top of Britain. This gives ships the chance to visit many places both along the Scottish coastline and within the island communities that are buzzing with excitement ready to welcome the fleet. Many of the guest harbours are also looking forward to getting their own young ambassadors participating in the Race Series in 2011 and we look forward to building sail training links within each community to ensure this is achieved. The Shetland Organising Committee has selected 12 harbours on the leg, ready to welcome a small or large number of participating ships. In this brochure the 12 guest harbours introduce themselves and give a flavour of what Scotland has to offer. Exciting Experiences The Tall Ships crews and trainees have the opportunity to explore the Scottish coastline and islands from 12th July when the fleet leaves Greenock, until all participants are berthed in Lerwick during 21st July at the latest. When submitting the entry forms for The Tall Ships Races 2011, the vessels should specify which ports they wish to visit on the leg from Greenock to Lerwick. Each port will be able to prepare an excellent programme of activities, which will be enhanced by early communications between their areas and ships to meet your needs. The capacity in each harbour varies, and each port will give priority to ships that make early confirmation about their plans. Once a harbour is fully booked, alternative harbours will be proposed on the route and Cruise in Company details will be posted on www.tallshipsraceslerwick.com. A dedicated Cruise in Company team will be present in Greenock to answer any queries and collect passage plans to ensure that the Coastguard, Guest Harbours and Event Organisers provide a safe and well coordinated cruising experience for all the fleet. 1 Shetland is working in partnership with Scottish guest harbours to prepare fantastic social and cultural programmes in each area �������� ���� to offer ships. We want to give ports the unique opportunity to welcome The Tall Ships Fleet in a celebration of international culture and friendship. In particular, the Cruise in Company guest ������� harbours will also be working to provide opportunities for young ��������� ������� people from around Scottish coastal and island communities to take part in this fantastic Race Series and join your fellow trainees onboard ships for this experience of a lifetime. ��������� For general enquiries on the Cruise in Company please contact Fiona Dally in the Lerwick office on +44 (0) 1595 744 964. �������� ��������� ��������� �������� ���� �������� ����� ����������� 2 Guest Harbour Technical Information Information on potential guest harbours Quay capacities and ship/anchorage and tender possibilities STANDARD BUSINESS AGREEMENTS There will be no harbour charges.

  • Alles Wat Je Nog Niet Wist Over the Water of Life Fernand Dacquin Fernand Dacquin
    ALLES WAT JE NOG NIET WIST OVER THE WATER OF LIFE FERNAND DACQUIN FERNAND DACQUIN ALLES WAT JE NOG NIET WIST OVER THE WATER OF LIFE WOORD VOORAF DOOR CHARLES MACLEAN Nog een whiskyboek! Ik schrijf al bijna veertig jaar over whisky. Ik heb zeventien boeken over het onderwerp gepubliceerd, er talloze artikelen over neergepend en tientallen boeken over whisky gelezen – misschien wel honderden. Je zou je heel goed kunnen afvragen: wat valt er nu nog meer of anders over dit onderwerp te vertellen? How many ways are there to skin a cat? Maar dit boek is anders. Fernand, de auteur, vertelde me: ‘Ik maak een boek over mensen, dingen en gebeurtenissen waar een whiskygeurtje aan hangt... Over de minder bekende kant van de whiskywereld, dus. Geen gepraat over het aantal liters, geen wetenschappelijke uitleg, tenzij nodig om het verhaal te begrijpen, en vooral gegarandeerd geen proefnotities. Maar wel 111 artikelen die je wellicht niet in een boek over whisky verwacht...’ 7 Ha! Waarom 111? 111 proof betekent hetzelfde als 63,5% Alcohol By Volume (ABV), en dat is een van de ‘magische getallen’ in whisky. Lang geleden werd ontdekt dat dit de optimale sterkte voor rijping is. New spirit wordt traditioneel tot dit niveau verdund, voordat het in het vat wordt gedaan. Deze subtiele, stille verwijzing naar whisky typeert Fernand. De onderwerpen die hij omarmt, zijn bovendien op zijn zachtst gezegd ongebruikelijk. Fernand en ik ontmoetten elkaar voor het eerst in 1998, op een whiskyfestival in Den Haag. Twee jaar geleden kwamen we elkaar opnieuw tegen, in Edinburgh en later Brussel, met Robrecht Willaert, hoofdredacteur van Travel Magazine en uitgever van de monumentale jaarlijkse A Journey: The Travel Industry Towards 2030.

  • The Big Kipper Presenter
    THE BIG KIPPER THE BIG KIPPER HE BIG The ripper of kippers. Scottish herring, heartily smoked for T a powerful Kintyre flavor. THE RIPPER OF KIPPERS, The ‘ripper of all kippers’, it’s conventionally called, SCOTTISH HERRING, HEARTILY SMOKED FOR A POWERFUL KINTYRE FLAVOUR The walrus and the carpenter, they were far from appalled, Smoked to perfection in the blazing kilns of The Kintyre Smokehouse ‘What’s all this fuss about?’, said the walrus merrily K R ‘This ain’t no little oyster’, said the carpenter with glee. IPP E The walrus smiled and answered ‘No, it’s really quite the herring!’ The carpenter exclaimed ‘On the contrary my friend…it’s the perfect food for sharing!’ Direct from the Mull of Kintyre – The Big Kipper is produced with pride in our Campbeltown smokehouse. Why not relax, loosen your belt buckles, and indulge in some of the finest smoked seafood known to man. Perfect with a dram, glass of wine or a nice little craft beer. Check out our website, www.kintyresmokehouse.com for some inspirational suggestions on food and drink pairings. BACKGROUND TO THE BRAND & COMPANY The Kintyre Smokehouse was born from one man’s absolute passion for producing fine smoked Scottish seafood and cheese. Founder, Archie Macmillan of Macmillan Foods, magically turned what was once an old dilapidated kipper house, into something really quite extraordinary. Archie’s uncanny flair for dreaming up beautiful unique recipes and turning them into wonderful creations could be mistaken by many as some form of gastronomic alchemy. Married with his high degree of technical and engineering expertise, the quality and succulent taste of the product range are a clear result of Archie’s 50 plus years of experience and absolute dedication to the Scottish seafood industry.

For so long part of the Norse Empire, the islands and islanders have retained much of their traditional heritage, seen in the unique craftwork, the music which fills local pubs and halls, and in the fire festival of Up Helly Aa which celebrates the Viking legacy.

  • Boomerang's 2008 Log Norway the Shetland Islands St Kilda
    Boomerang’s 2008 Log Norway The Shetland Islands St Kilda 2 April & May South Queensferry to Bergen Hardanger Fjord, Bomlo & Stord Selbjornsfjord to Lerwick Circumnavigation of The Shetland Islands Fair Isle The Orkney Islands Kirkwall to the River Tay Return to South Queensferry 2 3 The Preparations When my diagnosis of MND was confirmed in July 2007 I decided it was time to retire and start off-shore sailing. My first idea was to join the 2008 ARC and for this I needed to find a sailing companion, somebody either unemployed or able to throw off the shackles of labour for a few months. I posted adverts in local yacht clubs and subscribed to the crew-seekers website but without luck until my neighbour at Port Edgar Marina put me in touch with Mike Bowley. We first met in September and I discovered he was an experienced yachtsman, out of work, and although not available to sail south to the Canaries that October, we agreed to cross to Norway the following April. It was a long term ambition of mine to sail to Bergen and somehow I preferred this to sitting in the Caribbean sun. Boomerang is a 35ft Hustler with fin keel and skeg, built in 1971. When I bought her in 2004 I kept her on west coast to sail and make her seaworthy. This meant replacing the sea-cocks and hoses, improving the cockpit drainage, up-grading the primary fuel system and replacing switch panels and most of the wiring. To satisfy the insurers, my gas stove supply also needed modernised but as this would also involve fitting sensors and alarms, I ditched the gas stove overboard and bought a spirit Origa twin burner top stove instead.

New York, U. 5. A. From Painting by Dr. E, F. Coriu, Paris K.1s11\1 UL CASTLE} IsLE OF BAH HA PREFACE AVING a Highlander's pride of race, it was perhaps natural that I should have been deeply H interested, as a lad, in the stirring tales and quaint legends of our ancient Clan. With maturity came the desire for dependable records of its history, and I was disappointed at finding only incomplete accounts, here and there in published works, which were at the same time often contradictory. My succession to the Chiefship, besides bringing greetings from clansmen in many lands, also brought forth their expressions of the opinion that a complete history would be most desirable, coupled with the sug­ gestion that, as I had considerable data on hand, I com­ pile it. I felt some diffidence in undertaking to write about my own family, but, believing that under these conditions it would serve a worthy purpose, I commenced this work which was interrupted by the chaos of the Great War and by my own military service. In all cases where the original sources of information exist I have consulted them, so that I believe the book is quite accurate.

  • The Shetland Isles June 20-27
    Down to Earth “Earth science learning for all” The Shetland Isles June 20-27 The coastline of Papa Stour A word from your leaders... At last we are returning to Shetland some four years after our last visit. We have visited Shetland many times over the years, but this is a very different Shetland field trip, with most of the time based in North Mainland, allowing us access to new places, including the amazing coast of Papa Stour, every inch of which is European Heritage Coastline. We are basing most of the trip at the St Magnus Bay Hotel in Hillswick where Andrea and Paul will look after us. By the time of our visit they will have pretty well completed a five year refurbishment of this fine wooden building. Shetland is a very special place, where the UK meets the Nordic lands and it’s geology is pretty special too. It is crossed by the Great Glen fault in a north-south line which brings in slivers of metamorphic rocks from the Lewisian, Moinian and Dalradian. These rocks are overlain by sediments and volcanics from the Devonian. We’ll take in much of the rich variety that make up this Geopark. We’ll have the use of a minibus, with additional cars as required for this trip, which we are both greatly looking forward to. We expect this trip to book up fast, so don’t delay in getting back to us. Chris Darton & Colin Schofield Course Organisers/Leaders [email protected] Getting to Shetland Getting to Shetland is an adventure in itself, and can be part of your ‘Shetland experience’.
