Lot Information

Lot 1

Argyll and Bute Council are looking to appoint a contractor to undertake annual maintenance and repair of the vessel Belnahua.

Constructed of steel in accordance with the M.C.A. rules for a Class V1(A) passenger ro-pax vessel. The vessel is side loading with small ramps on the starboard side forward and port side aft to facilitate loading and discharging at sloping slipways.

This arrangement of ramps allows a "Drive Through" facility for vehicle traffic. Powered by twin Perkins Sabre Diesel engines with hydraulic steering and twin rudders.
