.....possibly because the Elephant pics had to be Trunk-ated due to their size

Nice pics Seafari... we're up roughly your way in August (Staying Loch Duich) and hope to cart the 3.6 Zodiac over to Skye in the car for a launch at Elgol to go and see the Cuillins.

Not sure I'd want anything too large passing under/around our small SIB though!
