I don’t know and I doubt if Calmac would tell us if it was in the same place.
The MV Lord of Isles has also had to be taken out of service for repairs due to corrosion.
This never used to happen in the past but thanks to the failure of the Scottish Government to keep building new ferries for the Clyde and Hebridean ferry routes the ferries are getting more and more elderly and clapped out.
