Islay Turkish-built CalMac ferry successfully launched
The first of four ferries being built for Scotland's west coast routes has been successfully launched in Turkey.
The MV Isle of Islay will serve on CalMac's Islay and Jura routes after work is finished at the Cemre Marin Endustri shipyard in Yalovan.
Two other vessels, MV Glen Sannox and MV Glen Rosa, being built at the Ferguson Marine shipyard on the Clyde have been subject to long delays.
The MV Isle of Islay is due to enter service in Scotland in October.
