Skye ferry's Glenelg slipway repaired
A slipway serving the world's last sea-going, manually-operated, turntable ferry has been repaired ahead of the boat's busy summer season.
The 45-year-old MV Glenachulish operates on the oldest crossing to Skye from the mainland.
Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) gave £31,500 towards the structural repairs to the slipway at Glenelg on the mainland.
The ferry carries 12,000 passengers every year.
Between April and October, the Glenachulish makes a short crossing of the Kylerhea Straits between Glenelg and Kylerhea on Skye.
A car ferry has crossed the straits since 1934.
The service has been run by the Isle of Skye Ferry Community Interest Company since 2007. The community-owned company was set up after long-time ferryman Roddy MacLeod retired.
