Normand Subsea - Visit to Greenock

The 'Normand Subsea' arrived at the Greenock Ocean Terminal this morning.

She has been before - May 2012 I believe.

She is a Survey and Light Construction vessel specifically designed for inspection, maintenance and repair work, and also serves as an offshore supply vessel.

PS Waverley - Maintenance Time

A rare opportunity to document the grand old lady - PS Waverley - as she undergoes some TLC before starting her summer season.

She exits the dry dock on Monday morning and will go on trials and get compass adjustments before heading up to her regular berth in Glasgow.

Here's hoping she has a bumper season as it will generate revenues to keep this icon alive on our river.

She is after all a major part of our Clyde heritage - and irreplaceable for sure.
