CAL MAC FERRIES FROM THE PAST


Here is a very interesting picture taken by Dennis in the early 70s showing the old Claymore taking on cars by hoist at the railway pier in Oban. This was a very slow and precarious method compared to today's modern roll on roll off vessels.Dennis still shoots Cal Mac ferries today with a great passion.Dennis Hardley Photography at http://www.scotphoto.com/
