They use Fairlie Pier for overnight Berthing and bunkering of the LNG.

Re: Latest Glen Sannox Delay
Latest problem for this ferry is it's sewage system. It can handle the 20_25 persons on board for sea trials but will likely need upgrade or tweaking when it's carrying 200-300 passengers. Most likely this work will be carried out in February when she is due in dock to permanently fix the anchor stowage problem.

Re: Latest Glen Sannox Delay
It's got to be fixed next week, as will be carrying passengers on the 13th.
You couldn't make it up, she apparently emits more Co2 than any other ship in th Calmac fleet.
