Day 39 Feb 16th Pancake Day. Findochty to Inverness.

 Time to move on and leave the pretty but somewhat austere Findochty.  Nice meal at the "Admiral" pub though.

Next port is inverness.,in preparation for a trip through the caledonian canal and onto the west coast.

On leaving the harbour we broad reach across the bay due West towards Lossiemouth Keeping north of the Halliman Skerries. Then Sw into the Moray Firth toward Cromarty.

Taking the Southern approaches pastwhite ness sands winding into the inverness ness rounding the North headland with its White Tower.  At this point we need to call harbour controll on ch12.  If no reply proceed with caution.   We are still 7miles to go at this point. 

This is the best place in Britain to spot Dolphins,by the way.
We then follow the north coast  down under the Kessoch Bridge then left into the narrow entrance of the river Ness and immediately left again into Inverness Marina.
