Great set of photos gpick.
I used to stay at the Glencoe hotel on my way to pick up a 44 foot twin screw motor cruiser me and my wife chartered from Banavie near Fort William.
We sailed all around the area for a couple of weeks, just the two of us. There was a boating club at Ballachuish near Glencoe where we moored one night.
It’s a fantastic place to visit.

Been there. done that, got the T-shirt!
Going back a few years we'd go up to the land of the Jockeens & spend about 5 days touring (covering mamy, many Distilleries) & all the local touristy places.
