Saturn's last day

Caledonian Macbrayne's stalwart Saturn recently "retired" the car ferry service from Gourock to Dunoon. ClydeNavalGazing correspondent Gordon Law was there.

The star of the show SATURN arrives at Gourock for her penultimate trip to Dunoon.

A farewell from WAVERLEY.

ALI CAT in new ARGYLL FERRIES livery awaits SATURN’S last car ferry run from Dunoon at Gourock.

The old and the new together – ALI CAT moored as SATURN moves astern to the wires following her last car ferry run from Dunoon. ALI CAT takes up a passenger only service with new aquisition ARGYLL FLYER from 30th June from Gourock to Dunoon.

PS Waverley

Waverley approaches Largs Pier from the north 04 August 2010.

Waverley

Waverley was the first "operational" vessel to use the rebuilt Largs Pier 29 July 2009.

Seen here on her return in the afternoon.

I find it incredible that, when Largs Pier was last operational, members of the public were not allowed access for "health and safety reasons" yet today, Waverley was allowed to disembark passengers across a working building site!

PS Waverley looks ship shape and bristol fashion as she leaves Campbeltown 19 July 2009, after a cruise around Sanda Island.

Waverley

PS Waverley caught at Fairlie Quay by ClydeNavalGazing correspondent Neil Robertson 17 July 2009. Waverley has been forced to use Fairlie Quay as an alternative to Largs Pier during the reconstruction works.

Largs

A rare shot (I think!) of Caledonian Macbrayne's Loch Shira lying off Largs while Loch Bhrusda takes the Cumbrae service, and Waverley departs for Brodick 20 August 2008. Loch Shira was out on sea trials most of the afternoon to test new work carried out on her systems.

Loch Bhrusda

Caledonian Macbrayne's Loch Bhrusda on relief at Largs with PSPS Waverley arriving from Rothesay in the background 08 July 2008. Interesting, these two vessels are unique (IMHO) as being the most distinctive sounding (in their own, and very different ways!) on the Clyde at the moment. Unmistakeable!

PS Waverley

PSPS paddle steamer Waverley arriving back at Largs 03 July 2008. This may have been her first commercial run of the season (at least the rain went off for their return).
