What this video covers
The crew of a cruising sailboat transits from the Isle of Skye to the Small Isles archipelago in Scotland, anchoring in the harbor at Canna.▶ 7:24 While approaching Canna, the vessel passes Compass Hill, a geological feature with high iron content known to deflect magnetic compasses; the crew disengages the autopilot as a precaution against potential navigation errors.▶ 7:49 The anchorage at Canna features approximately 10 mooring balls and accommodates up to 16 vessels, offering a more crowded environment than the northern coast of Skye.▶ 20:02 Ashore, the crew traverses a well-marked path from Canna to the adjacent island of Sanday to observe puffins nesting on coastal rock stacks.▶ 13:05 The island of Canna provides a self-service, honor-system convenience store equipped with a credit card terminal and public Wi-Fi.▶ 18:31 The crew plans a short passage to the neighboring island of Rum to gain a time buffer against forecasted southerly winds before meeting friends in Oban.▶ 9:07
