MV Isle of LewisAt berth
This route is suspended, whatever the vessel is doing. See the notice above.
Right now the trackers put MV Clansman alongside at Oban and MV Isle of Mull alongside at Oban, not MV Isle of Lewis. That is where she is, which is not the same as saying whose sailings these are.
Which vessel actually runs today is on the vessels list . This is the usual assignment, not a rota.
