We received some great shots of the 𝗖𝗧 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗻 making their way up the West Coast of Scotland over the weekend. It's a shame the weather isn't always like this 🌊⚓

At the start of the year, our workboat 𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 spent a few months on Scotland’s East Coast supporting 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗲 at Ardersier Port — a major redevelopment project by 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝘀 transforming the 450-acre site into a hub for offshore wind and energy.

We were proud to assist the cutter suction dredger 𝗱’𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗻 with deepening and widening the harbour and access channel. A project that required a very shallow draft workboat capable of handling anchors up to 4t.

With the dredging campaign now complete, 𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 returned west via the Caledonian Canal and is back supporting more local projects this summer.
