local private pilots.

“With Yotspot no longer providing their assisted passage
service this year, any short-handed sailors requiring assistance to transit can
now do so from a number of our recommended private pilots,” said Donna Mallan,
Customer Operations Manager at Scottish Canals.
Scottish Canals will aid boats to transit as much as
possible from one lock to the next, however if boats are single handed, never
transited the canal before or are looking for a speedy transit, Scottish Canals
recommend contacting one of the pilots and making arrangements with them, in
advance of a journey through the canal.
“The pilots on the list are all experienced, either
having worked for us on the canal or having taken many boats through over many
years,” she added.
Additionally, the 2018 edition of Welcome Anchorages
contains a 5% discount voucher on page 5, for a transit, return or two-week licence
on the Crinan or Caledonian Canals.
