Ship No 143
The first ever order from MacBraynes (1928) Ltd the company that is now running all the ferries in Scotland and is now called Cal-Mac.
Lochshiel was a 208 ton Motor Cargo Vessel, with a length overall of 105 feet and a beam of 26 feet, she was launched on the 8th of August 1929.
I am awaiting some more info on this Ship from Cal-Mac?
A history of the Ships built at the Henry Robb Shipyard in Leith, Scotland. Also a testimony to the men who built the Ships and to all who sailed in them.
