'Stavros S Niarchos' - Open Day
I braved the wind and rain and went aboard the 'Stavros S Niarchos' today as she was open to the public.
I had a bit of sympathy as the weather undermined the best efforts of the crew.
However, a delightful and enthusiastic Rachael showed me around the vessel, and was very patient as I stopped to take a few photos on my way round.
So, despite the weather, the visit was well worthwhile.

The 280 Tonne cable reel constructed at Inchgreen Quay was moved today on to a barge for onward transportation.
This was a lengthy process and now that it is installed on the barge - will be towed by the tug 'Viking' later in the week to it's destination.

HMS Montrose - Faslane Arrival
After completing my visit to Kilcreggan it was carry on round to Roseneath as I was expecting HMS Montrose to transit up to Faslane.
She duly obliged - but the visibility was abysmal with the mist and rain.
So with best efforts here are the images.

Kilcreggan Outlook
Having completed photographing at Glen Mallan, a very quick scoot down to Kilcreggan to try and catch the RFA Diligence.
The RFA Diligence is a very rare visitor to our waters and I was keen to record an image, but due to a later then anticipated berthing at Loch Long I missed her in the Gareloch.
Fortunate enough to catch her - albeit at long range - as she passed Kilcreggan enroute to Loch Striven for fuel.
Also managed a few shots of other craft in the area of Kilcreggan.

HMS Diamond - Glen Mallan
HMS Diamond - a clyde built Class 45 Royal Navy destroyer - arrived at Glen Mallan early this morning.
An early start in wet conditions was needed to get across to Loch long in time to meet her arrival.
