Cumbrae Slip/ Challenger of Leith
The current slip, which was built in the 1970s, is now deteriorating and CMAL is looking to rebuild the structure 'Two options have been put to islanders, with the first to revamp the existing double width slipway in its current position and build a temporary slipway to maintain service during construction.
The second option is to build a new double width slipway around 25 metres south of the existing structure and transfer services to this once construction is complete.

AURELIA
AURELIA is a one-off design by Tammy Moncrieff of Lerwick, Shetland and was built by Hay & Co of Lerwick in 1952 for Dr H J Harcourt of the Royal Corinthian Yacht Club. She was sold in 1958 and later was left in the Baltic in poor condition. Her designer sailed her back to Shetland and presumably, restored her. Eventually, she was purchased by her present owner in 1999 and is to be found sailing and racing successfully off the west coast of Scotland.
