About Cygnet WHS

The Cygnet is a very affordable compact cruiser, ideal for couples or smaller families. The Cygnet WHS is not recommended for anyone with limited mobility as the rear and sides are quite high with no assisting ladder or step built into the boat .

Please note: Boats in our Scottish fleet ending with ‘WHS’ were previously operated by West Highland Sailing, and are older than boats from our regular budget fleet. This is reflected in the price.

Pre trip information was with us in good time and relevant On-line videos were good but a freshen up to a better format might be in order. On meeting at Laggan the staff were very friendly and helpful. With reasonable weather you can't fail to be impressed with the scenery. Life at 6 mph is a great tonic for todays life style. I can't comment properly on the shore activity because of Covid restrictions but we were content with what was available.

The office staff were friendly and welcoming throughout the booking process. The boat companies web site was excellent and the staff at Laggan really helpfull. Ideal for 2 people with to much luggage. Storage could of been as issue with more people. Scotland can be cold in October, would of been nice to have had a boat that you could of linked into mains electric.

I'm glad to hear that the team quickly refunded you for the parking that you were mistakenly charged for.
