Returning from Oban at the end of her short programme of sailings in late May 2009, Waverley berthed at Port Ellen on the lovely Isle of Islay. In recent times Waverley has had to omit a number of planned calls at the island port due mainly to weather factors.
The 2009 call was captured in photos by a young man called Elliott Bowman who has compiled his own impressive blog of shipping calling at the two main Islay ports or just sailing past.
A visit to Elliott's blog is highly recommended
