The Corbetts are Scottish hills between 2,500 and 3,000ft, with at least 500ft ascent on all sides.

Day 4 - Rum
Manny had a pleasant run over the island's two Corbetts, although feeling weakish, and as of last night, had sailed to Mull and was just off Tobermory. Hopefully he's feeling a bit stronger for today's Corbett.
Excerpt from Crew Log: Tues 28th. Fi & I, due to join "Finlandia" on Mull for crew changeover, poor weather on Skye, Sunday caused delay, so no need to hurry.
3.0pm: Lochaline: msg from boat: light winds & slow progress. 1.5mls from Rhum. That's ok, there's time to take in a tour of Mull.
8.0pm: No visual of "Finlandia" in Sound of Mull, perhaps they've carried straight on to the Med. We're off to the Mishnish for grub & beer.
9.0pm: txt msg: "still sailing. ETA Tobermory after midnight" We better look for a room ..........
