  • Long-delayed Ferguson ferry Glen Sannox begins sea trials.
    Initially launched back in 2017 by then First Minister Nicola Sturgeon
    the ship has been tethered at the quayside whilst the work was completed.
    Powered by its own engines, for the first time, MV Glen Sannox makes a short journey down the River Clyde as it begins sea trials ahead of delivery this summer.

    I had the pleasure of sailing with her predecessor in 1980, Wymess Bay to Rothsay, and return a week later. Hope the new ship serves as well as she did. 🙏🙏🇬🇧

    I can not understand how this ship build can overrun so much - but well done to the team behind it

    Is anyone running a book on how long before it's out of service with a breakdown?

    LNG is not available in Scotland so why did cmal order a ship to run on it its industrial sabotage jim mccall had nay bother sounds to me like cmAL didn't know LPG and LNG are totally different in terms complexities perhaps a wee peat and diesel mix would ha been better

    Just about as bad as the Scottish Parliament building at Holyrood. What political party designed that?
