MV BELNAHUA





 MV BELNAHUA  Isle of Luing Cuan Sound Crossing built in 1972 Campbeltown shipyard .

 she is at the end of her reasonable and already extended

life. Parts can no longer be sourced for her engines and work is required to bring her up to

standard with current marine requirements. She is also operating around 25% above

capacity to support demand, especially in summer. She is scheduled to have a life

extending refit early in 2024 that will fit new engines and other compliant equipment such

as fixed firefighting equipment and bilge alarms. This should extend her life for around 5

years.

The current plan is that a new vessel will be built for the Jura-Islay route which would free up

MV Eilean Dhiura to replace the MV Belnahua.
