[REDACTED].

SG also requested an updated list of warranty items for the dry dock, including works that should be prioritised and required to be completed while the vessel is out of service. The associated costs should also be included within the list. 

Glen Rosa – delivery and deployment 

GR delivery programme update

The next project meeting discussing the build plan is scheduled for early December between FMPG, CMAL and SG. A copy of the latest version should be provided in advance of the meeting.

Suggestions were raised on the scheduling of the dry dock for Glen Rosa once the vessel was classified and handed over to CMAL. CalMac confirmed the availability of bringing the first service forward and that becomes the locked date for dry dock. This was similar to the recertification period for Glen Sannox and now the annual overhaul occurs November every year.

CalMac also confirmed there are various slots available throughout the year for dry docking however no decisions has been made for Glen Rosa yet.
