| Location and Directions |
 |
| |
| Mainsail Yachting is located at the Kip
Marina which has long been acknowledged as Scotland's
Premier Marina. It has a spacious berthing layout, rural
location and excellent access to cruising grounds. Within
the local village of Inverkip and in the Marina itself
there is a choice of shops, bars and restaurants. The
area offers some of the best and most breathtaking sailing
waters in Europe. Mainsail Yachting is also near the gateway
to Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, the
first National Park in Scotland. |
By road: From Glasgow
or Glasgow Airport, drive west on the M8 and follow the
signs for Greenock. Continue on the A78, following signs
to Largs/Inverkip.
By rail: Take the train from Glasgow Central
Station to Inverkip (end destination Largs).
By bus: Take the bus from Glasgow Buchanan
Street Station to Inverkip (end destination Largs). |

| Mainsail Yachting also operates
out of Holy
Loch Marina in Dunoon, Argyll. Dunoon is reached
from Glasgow by driving west on the M8 and following
the signs for Greenock and Gourock, or you can take
the train or bus from Glasgow to Gourock, as above. |
|
|
Upon reaching Gourock, you can take
either the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry which operates
from the Gourock Ferry Terminal (next to the train
station) to Dunoon Pier, or you can take Western Ferries
from Gourock's McInroy's Point to Hunter's Quay. Neither
ferry requires pre-booking. Alternatively, drive the
longer, scenic route from Glasgow, crossing the Erskine
Bridge and then heading for the A82 which passes Loch
Lomondside, then the A83 past the Rest and Be Thankful,
followed by the A815 along the shores of Loch Eck,
which leads to Dunoon. |
