Med ca. 6,5 års forsinkelse (skulle have været leveret i maj 2018), har det skotske værft Ferguson Marine, torsdag d. 21. november, endelig leveret færgen GLEN SANNOX til Caledonian MacBrayne (Caledonian Maritime Assets). I løbet af byggeprocessen måtte værftet nationaliseres, for at garantere at GLEN SANNOX og dens efterfølgende søster GLEN ROSA, ville blive bygget færdige.
“MV Glen Sannox is a welcome addition to the CalMac fleet. Her arrival will benefit communities across the whole west coast ferry network, as new tonnage gives us more flexibility in how we deploy vessels. Our crew are excited to sail her and will now get to work to complete operational trials and familiarisation work in the next few weeks before she enters service for Arran.”
CalMac interim CEO Duncan Mackison.
GLEN SANNOX vil efter planen blive sat i drift midt i januar 2025.
