MV Argyle
MV ''Argyle'' is a ferry owned by Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited and operated by Caledonian MacBrayne on the route between Wemyss Bay and Rothesay. She is the seventh Clyde ship to have the name ''Argyle''. ==History== Until 2007, there had not been an ''Argyle'' on the Clyde for over a hundred years, but the present vessel is the seventh of the name. The first was a paddle steamer built only two years after the pioneer steamship PS ''Comet'' appeared on the river in 1812. The second was commissioned in 1815; the third and fourth had connections with Loch Fyne, while the fifth was a cargo steamer sailing to the Outer Hebrides.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=MV Argyle ) 〕 In the mid nineteenth century the spelling of the county changed to Argyll. The old spelling, however, is appropriate as the ship’s most prominent ancestor was a paddle steamer built in 1866 and sold by her original owner within a month to the Wemyss Bay Steam Boat Company. She was the successor to their PS ''Bute'' and remained on the Wemyss Bay route for almost quarter of a century. Built in Poland, she was launched on 12 September 2006.〔 Following delivery, the fitting out process took into account design modifications based on lessons learned from MV ''Bute''. She was formally named at Rothesay Bay on 4 May 2007 before joining the Caledonian MacBrayne fleet later in the month.
