Nova Vita departs Millport, Scotland, for a passage to Campbeltown, navigating around the southern tip of the Isle of Arran.0:25 The crew encounters variable conditions, beginning with a thunderstorm and a squall that briefly kills the wind.1:41 After clearing the Holy Isle and Pladda lighthouse, the boat experiences a sudden increase to 28 knots of wind, creating challenging wind-over-tide conditions that require a double-reefed main.7:11 As the wind drops to near-calm, the crew encounters confused, swirling seas near the entrance to Kilbrannon Sound, forcing them to motor the final stretch.10:49 Upon reaching the entrance to Campbeltown, the crew observes significant rolling in the anchorage and decides to proceed directly to the Campbeltown marina.12:55 The vessel docks successfully alongside the town pontoon, which provides shelter from the earlier swell.13:40 The passage demonstrates how quickly coastal conditions can shift from light air to high-wind, wind-over-tide scenarios in the Firth of Clyde.
