They have another vessel named just HEBRIDES, completed on time in 2001 at Fergusons. I was on her doing some training in the yard Feb 01.

See the new glan rannox ferry, now 9? Years late, has been approved for carrying passengers, still undergoing crew training and assimilation before it can actually enter service.

John, before she enters service and after completing crew and berthing trials, she is going into dry dock for a bum scrub.
