Bosses from the Ferguson Marine yard, where the new Arran ferry is being built, are coming to island next week, the Banner can reveal. They are to face the travelling public and have pledged to reveal all about the progress with the £48.5 million MV Glen Sannox, currently under construction at their Port Glasgow yard.
A public meeting will be held in Brodick Hall on Tuesday August 28 at 6pm and, after an overview of the shipyard, saved four years ago, and a update on the Glen Sannox, there will be question and answer session for which 90 minutes has been set aside.
Facing the audience will be the Ferguson chief executive, Gerry Marshall, and business development manager, John Morgan, and, it is hoped, the yard’s chief ships architect, Chris Dunn.
