Scottish government’s Glen Sannox ferry, built and owned by the state, began serving the busy Troon-Isle of Arran route in January 2025. It was seven years late and four times over budget. It is now out of action with engine problems. It only returned to service last week following previous repairs to its exhaust system. It also needs new propellers as part of £3.2m repair costs, along with its equally troubled sister ship Glen Rosa.
