MINNA

Not just one Ferguson Shipbuilders product is shown in this view, but three! On the right, the Scottish Fisheries Protection Agency's vessel MINNA was seen as she headed downriver from their base in the James Watt Dock. MINNA was built at Port Glasgow in 2003, and is 42 metres in length. Mainly used for inshore work, she is the third fisheries cruiser to bear the name. At McInroy's Point, Western Ferries' terminal to the west of Gourock, is SOUND OF SHUNA, also built at Fergusons in 2003. As for the third Ferguson product? The linkspan itself, which was built at Newark Shipyard and installed at McInroy's Point in the early summer of 2007.
