Mariners are advised on Wednesday 13th August 2014, North West Marine Ltd is undertaking a dive project to inspect the inner harbour quayside and pier structure of Port Ellen Ferry Terminal, Islay.

At all times operational working areas will be appropriately marked using Flag A “Diving Operations” with pier dive operations being undertaken between scheduled ferry services to ensure there is no disruption to service. The dive team supervisor will liaise with the Harbour Manager and ferry Masters and will monitor VHF channel 16.

All vessels navigating in the vicinity of Port Ellen Ferry Terminal and inner harbour must do so with caution and regulate their speed to minimise the effects of wash accordingly. Any vessels using the quaysides or pier must do so with extreme care when Flag A is displayed and allow sufficient time for divers to exit the water if required.
