It was great to see the berthing trials of the much delayed GLEN SANNOX at the Port of Troon. It's also good to see the works recently completed at the Port in preparation for Caledonian Mcbrayne to accommodate the GLEN SANNOX. Although the new walkway is more or less open to the elements, I appreciate the fact that it couldn't be fully undercover due to the width of the adjacent access road. But hopefully, at some point, a better gangway arrangement will be in place, such as a covered mobile elevated gangway. Otherwise, passengers will be open to the elements until they finally walk to the terminal. The port of Troon means a slightly longer crossing time than it would have done from the Port of Ardrossan, but there's no doubt about it, it is a far superior berth. With the much delayed and frustrations regarding the redevelopment of the Port of Ardrossan I can forsee the GLEN SANNOX sailing from the Port of Troon for several years ahead if not longer. But one thing that I'm interested in is what happens when the Port of Troon has small cruise ships making turn around calls such as the likes of Noble Caledonia using the berth?
@Greggs30806and what nice thing did you say.? Well you actually didn't say anything because what you implied or wanted to say wasn't going to be very nice.
@@jamesmason8944 I was replying to Calcum81able's comment about how if he didn't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all. As there was literally no reason why Stephenkeelly1887 should be called a weirdo for his comment and it's just rude, because there's literally nothing weird about it. However maybe I could have worded it better, which is my mistake.

She's magnificent. Well worth the wait. Looking forward to sailing on her.
Weirdo

What's with all the dents on the sides?
I see an airspace drone flying restriction here . I take it you had permission to fly a drone here ???
@@standrewpics Yep you were correct, I did ask for permission before flying the drone around the Glen Sannox.
You work for them!
