Almost 800 CalMac sailings were cancelled last year because of mechanical breakdowns, figures have revealed.
Scottish Greens transport spokesperson and Highlands and Islands MSP John Finnie has now called on the Scottish Government to urgently review its ferries plan in light of the new figures.
According to the figures obtained from CalMac by Mr Finnie, 780 services were cancelled for technical reasons in 2018, 150 more than in 2017.
