CMAL reports that the new ISLE OF ISLAY may be delivered before Christmas, though entry into service is expected in the New Year. MCA completion surveys took place in late October, with final checks planned for early December. Delivery remains the target but is not guaranteed.
Sister ship LOCH INDAAL is now berthed alongside ISLE OF ISLAY at Cemre Shipyard No. 1, with outfit work and major systems commissioning underway.
The third vessel, LOCHMOR, is progressing at Cemre Shipyard No. 2, with outfit work, equipment installation, pipework, cabling, ventilation, and insulation ongoing.
Hull construction of CLAYMORE (NB1101) is complete and outfit work continues. The launch is anticipated in Q1 2026, following the delivery of ISLE OF ISLAY.
