ISLE OF CUMBRAE

Another island served from Oban is Lismore, and it is at the island's car ferry slipway at Achnacroish that ISLE OF CUMBRAE is seen. Another small ferry - passenger-only - serves Lismore at its northern end. There has been considerable debate over the years about which ferry service suits the needs of the islanders best, but to date the current regime holds sway. ISLE OF CUMBRAE was deputising on the hour-long crossing for the regular ferry, EIGG, which had left that morning for her annual survey at Corpach Boatyard.
