MV Isle of Islay is a roll-on/roll-off vehicle and passenger ferry being constructed for use by Caledonian MacBrayne on routes on the west coast of Scotland.
She is the first of four ferries being built in Turkey for Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited, and is expected to be delivered in early 2025 for service on routes linking Islay with Kennacraig on the mainland.
[5] Isle of Islay was launched on 16 March 2024,[2] and was expected to be delivered by the end of that year,[6] however this was later altered to the first quarter of 2025.
[7] A £115M contract for two further ferries of the same design for CalMac's Skye, Harris and North Uist service was awarded to Cemre Shipyard in early 2023.
[11] The stern ramp will be able to change position depending on the port at which the ferry is berthed to allow ease of loading.
