Historic ferry returns after £80,000 refit

The Glenelg-skye ferry MV Glenachulish, the last manually operated turntable ferry in the world, is to re-enter service after an £80,000 refit.

The original wheelhouse has been replaced with a state of the art new one, with new electrics, steering mechanism, and monitors.

The work was funded by the ferry company, the Glenachulish Preservation Trust, and by ferry supporters from all over the world.

The MV Glenachulish returns to Glenelg on 3 April, to be ready for service on Monday 10 April.
