In 1935–36 the Greenock Dockyard Company on the River Clyde at Greenock in Renfrewshire built three sister ships: two for Clan Line Steamers and one for Scottish Shire Line, which was closely associated with Clan Line.

Finally was launched on 7 August 1936 and completed in November.〔
Each ship had 24 corrugated furnaces with a combined grate area of heating six single-ended boilers with a combined heating surface of that supplied steam at 220 lbf/in2 to a pair of three-cylinder triple-expansion steam engines, with steam exhausted from the low-pressure cylinders then driving a pair of low-pressure steam turbines. The North East Marine Engineering Co of Newcastle upon Tyne built the four engines, whose combined power was rated at 1,552 NHP.〔
