Good Shepherd

The ferry from Fair Isle, the Good Shepherd IV, is timetabled to come in once a week on a Tuesday during the winter. I'm assuming therefore that Tuesday this week was too rough as she was discharging her cargo including this van at the Grutness Pier this morning. As you can see it's not roll on roll off!

Intersting capture with nice contrasting colours. I wouldn't fancy the crossing from Fair Isle in that size of boat! Not a streak of rust on her either, I'm impressed.

@nhoj1951 she’s an old boat now. Converted trawler and pressing for a new one. I wouldn’t like that trip either

Looks like it has important cargo.
