In 1986 the “Mackay Seagull” (named after our Founder, and built by the apprentices of Cammel Laird in Liverpool) joined the fleet at Ratho to double the cruising capacity at Ratho and serve the numerous hospitals, care centres and homes in the Edinburgh area.
Originally the Mackay Seagull was constructed without the wheelhouse on the back. This was subsequently added to protect the crew during the wet and windy weather which is not uncommon during our summers, not to mention during the Christmas cruises.
