CalMac

 CalMac take kayaks for free, and we had a lot of gear to upload

Unfortunately, trying to load all gear onto the ferry in a hurry (to avoid delaying the already late-running ferry) I sprained my knee.

 As I couldn't put any weight on my knee at all, it rapidly became clear that it wasn't feasible for us to disembarg on Eigg.  

The CalMac crew were very helpful. They loaded the kayak and everything into their truck and took us to Malaig, where one of them stayed late to help Tom put the kayak on top of our car.

After trip to A&E in Inverness the next day, we started the journey home.

Very pleasant overnight stay in Appleby Manor
