Waverley to Girvan and Ailsa Craig
On Monday 20th August 2018, Waverley sailed from Glasgow to Largs and then on to Girvan and Ailsa Craig. The sailing was very unique as Waverley called twice at Girvan and sailed direct from Largs to Girvan. Both of these were not common occurrences.
Below is a selection of images from the cruise around Paddy’s Milestone as well as a video from the PSPS YouTube channel highlighting the day’s events.
