Cargo ship 'UFA' - arrives Greenock for Repairs



The cargo ship 'UFA' - a russian owned vessel - arrived at the James Watt Dock in Greenock just after lunch.

She had a collision with the West Pier at Ayr harbour.

The damage is clearly visible, and she will now be assessed for repair work.

Although unconfirmed I understand she had a problem with her steering gear.
