Caledonian MacBrayne – The Fleet

Baird Maritime

By Miles Cowsill, John Hendy & Lawrence MacDuff

From Baird Maritime:

The funny little fleet of 27 Ro-Pax ferries that service Scotland's Western Isles are not only a means of transport but a tourist attraction in their own right.

Importantly, these little ships also provide the lifeblood or at least a lifeline to the few widely scattered people who inhabit those remote and bleak islands.

Through bad weather and, rarely, good. Despite industrial strife and other difficulties, they provide a dependable and reasonably economical service.

This little (appropriately) book is apparently mainly intended as a souvenir to be sold aboard Cal Mac's vessels. In its 44 very well illustrated pages it provides an excellent overview of the company and its fleet.
