        为苏格兰小明奇航线建造的两艘新渡轮首制船"洛克莫尔"号（MV Lochmor）于2025年8月23日在土耳其亚洛瓦市杰姆雷海洋工业船厂下水。该船与姊妹船"赫布里底"号（MV Hebrides）及"克莱莫尔"号（MV Claymore）将共同执航斯凯岛乌伊格港、哈里斯岛塔伯特港和北乌伊斯特岛洛克马迪港之间的双船航线。"洛克莫尔"号可搭载450名乘客及100辆轿车或14辆商用货车，将极大提升航线运力与运营稳定性。

 

        2022年，苏格兰交通局为小明奇渡轮项目提供了1.15亿英镑资金，部分预算用于根据新船设计进行港口设施改造。经过竞标程序，杰姆雷船厂于2023年2月获得建造合同。作为苏格兰渡轮网络重大投资计划的一部分，"洛克莫尔"号是CMAL公司在该土耳其船厂订造的四艘标准化渡轮中的第三艘。

 

        CMAL公司代表与项目主要利益相关方出席了下水仪式。这艘渡轮由长期任职于卡尔麦克公司、现驻塔伯特渡轮码头的员工凯·麦克劳德女士正式命名下水。

 

        完成下水后，"洛克莫尔"号将进行水上舾装和系统安装，随后开展海试。该船预计于2026年下半年抵达苏格兰，在经过船员熟悉和本地运营测试后正式投入运营。

 

        未来数月内，该船厂建造的四艘渡轮中的首制船"艾莱岛"号（MV Isle of Islay）将率先投入艾莱岛航线运营。CMAL正与杰姆雷船厂及卡尔麦克公司紧密合作，力争尽快完成所有四艘渡轮的交付与部署工作。

MV Lochmor, the first of two new vessels for the Little Minch routes, was launched August 23, 2025 at Cemre Marin Endustri shipyard in Yalova, Turkey.

 

MV Hebrides, the new ferry along with sister vessel, MV Claymore, will provide a two-vessel service to the routes between Uig on Skye, Tarbert (Harris) and Lochmaddy (North Uist). MV Lochmor can accommodate up to 450 passengers and 100 cars, or 14 commercial vehicles, bringing a major boost to capacity and resilience for the communities it will serve.

 

Transport Scotland provided £115m of funding for the Little Minch ferries project in 2022, with some of the budget allocated to minor port improvements to reflect the design of these vessels. The contract was awarded to Cemre Marin Endustri in February 2023, following a competitive tender process. MV Lochmor is the third of four standardised vessels being built at the Turkish yard for CMAL as part of a significant investment in Scotland’s ferry network.

 

The launch ceremony was attended by representatives of CMAL and key project stakeholders. The ferry was officially launched by Kay MacLeod, a long serving CalMac employee who works at Tarbert ferry terminal.

 

Following her launch, MV Lochmor will undergo further outfitting and system installations in the water before sea trials take place. She is scheduled to arrive in Scotland later in 2026, after which she will complete crew familiarisation and local operational testing before entering service.

 

Over the coming months, the first of the four vessels built at the yard, MV Isle of Islay, will be introduced into service on the Islay route. CMAL is working closely with Cemre and CalMac with the shared goal of delivering and deploying all four vessels at the earliest opportunity.
