Faroes Paddlers Head Across Minch

The two dots in the photo are Mick Berwick and Patrick Winterton
leaving Clashnessie Bay near Stoer early Sunday morning heading across
the Minch to Stornoway. With no ferries today it was the only way back
to their vehicle. This would be a huge crossing for me, and not one
I'd attempt in a forecast F7, but I haven't just paddled to the Faroes.
