TV Darling
A very popular boat with our guests, Glen Tarsan was featured in the hit television series Cruising with Jane McDonald on a ‘Mull her Inlets and Islands’ cruise. One of the highlights of the programme was Jane singing in Fingal’s Cave on Staffa.
Glen Tarsan can take a maximum of 11 guests in six double or twin ensuite cabins. There are two cabins on the main deck with the remaining four situated below decks, all cabins have a porthole/window.
Modernity meets Tradition
Like her sister ship Glen Massan, the Glen Tarsan is a lovingly converted wooden hulled former fishing boat. The spacious deck saloon/dining area is where our guests gather and relax – enjoying a book, some conversation, a board game, or simply watching the enchanting Scottish scenery roll by through the panoramic windows. The deck saloon has been redecorated in 2025 with a modern twist on a classic nautical feel. Special attention has been given to providing upholstered furniture providing the utmost comfort to our guests for their lounging needs. Like all our boats, Glen Tarsan is equipped with high-speed onboard Wi-Fi.
Informal Dining
All meals are served at the communal table in the deck saloon, although canapes and drinks are often served on the outdoor aft deck, which is accessible through French doors, to catch the last of the evening light. Early risers are welcomed by a hot drink and any other sustenance required until breakfast is served.
A Well Stocked Bar
The bar in the deck saloon is very well stocked, including an impressive choice of malt whiskies (and soft drinks if preferred!) and is available at all times.
The Outdoor Decks
The outside decks are a delightful aspect of The Majestic Line vessels. They have been carefully designed to enhance the guest experience on board, providing a perfect outdoor environment when desired. At deck saloon level on Glen Tarsan, french doors open out onto the sheltered aft deck, which has a table to allow for alfresco dining. At any time, guests can be found reading, chatting, enjoying a drink or snack, or just taking in the scenery.
Al Fresco At Anchor
When the boat is at anchor the aft deck is the perfect place for milling after dinner, to share stories, watch a beautiful west coast sunset, check out the stars and listen to the perfect silence broken only by the calls of birds and the gentle lapping of the water against the hull.
Take A Spell At The Helm
From the deck saloon, stairs lead to the spacious upper decks and the wheelhouse. When cruising many of our guests like to spend time in the wheelhouse chatting with the skipper and crew and perhaps even taking a spell at the helm. The crew have a wealth of information about the local history of the areas visited that day and aspects of marine interest.
Soak Up The Sun Or Watch Out For Whales
There are two top decks, the sheltered aft sun deck with sun loungers and the fore deck which is ideal for wildlife watching. Alternatively, there is plenty of space to find a corner to settle down with a book.
