David was very organised and managed to do a smooth check-in quickly, explained well all the nuances of the boat. I was impressed by many things on that boat: Elan 434 is generally quite comfortable, bed linen is a pleasant thing (a rare thing for northern sailing), webasto was working properly – we were not […]

We had a wonderful time on board Cloud Nine.  David was a great skipper with endless knowledge about the area we were sailing in.  Getting a better tour guide would be difficult.  His sailing and seamanship were excellent. Sir Chay Blyth

We recently received a lovely review and some cracking photos from our client Jamie Speirs who was on board Cloud Nine with his family. Judging by his photos, you can see why they didn’t want to get off the boat! We look forward to seeing them again next summer!

Six of us chartered Cloud Nine on a bareboat basis at the end of August 2021 and had a wonderful time. The boat was great. There was masses of room and she sailed well.

We were accompanied by dolphins and seals for much of the week! David is great to deal with and has many tips and recommendations to assist with planning your trip if […]

A fabulous week on Cloud Nine. Stunning weather, unbelievable scenery, whales, dolphins, bird life and delicious fresh sea food all enhanced by the relaxed but skilful skippering from David whose knowledge of the islands is second to none. Thank you for such a memorable experience. Nigel Lewers May 2019.

We thoroughly enjoyed 4 days sailing on Cloud Nine in August. Expertly skippered by Davey, whose knowledge of the local winds and currents was impressive and very reassuring . He was also  happy to let me sail, with instruction! He had our best interests in mind, with all his decisions. His breakfasts were good as […]

Many thanks Davey for a fantastic trip off the West coast of Scotland around Mull, the Slate Islands and the Garvellachs. We had some fairly wild weather but you skippered the yacht superbly and found us some beautiful moorings over night. The yacht is really well appointed and we were so well looked after throughout […]
