Isle of Cumbrae - Engine Room Overview
Built in 1977 by Ailsa Troon, Isle of Cumbrae is the oldest member of the CalMac fleet as of 2020.
Originally built with 2 x Gardner 8L3B engines she was re-fitted with twin 230hp Scania D9 units in 2002.
Electrical power is provided by either one of the two Lister HRW3 generators of 32hp fed to a very basic distribution board in the port-aft side of the engine room.
Propulsion comes from two Voith Schneider Lochalsh III units each driven via a Twin Disc reduction gearbox and Fluidrive viscous coupling.
Due to her age, and relative difficulty in sourcing certain spares it is expected that she will be retired from the fleet in the next few years.

Quick video showing the glorious Big Red running after sitting dormant for 6 years. She runs rough and the exhaust leaks badly but we intend to put her right over the summer.

      That and British car makers remained stuck in the past where as car makers in mainland Europe (particularly France & Germany) and Japan looked ahead to the future by building proper cars depending on the current economic situation

    During the '70s & '80s, I was MD of a small company and so, I chose and purchased our company cars, which we changed every three years. The list begins: Daimler Sovereign, Triumph Stag, Morris Marina, Austin Metro, Austin Allegro and Austin Princess. To sum up all these cars just requires one word: total SHIT! And the worst: the Austin Princess 2200 HLS. This was my own personal car and after 3 months of sheer misery, I replaced it with a Ford Granada Mk 1, 3 litre V6. Now there was a car!

    Honda at Swindon had the right attitude, the managers would wear overalls and have their meal breaks with the production staff, no us and them, that’s where Leyland failed the senior managers just didn’t no how to communicate with the people who actually made the cars which at times led to industrial unrest.

    Interesting how times changes. Big, bulky, heavy, "safe" road tanks to "survive" car crash which are dangerous because many people are driving that: big, bulky, heavy road tanks, is pushed so hard, that many people really do think that sales pitches are true. I myself did believe in it. Still, never had a single person owning cars mentioned in this show complaining - especially people-movers when those were used as cheaper cargo vans for preparing venue events, move things, doing large shopping or simply travelling in a group long distance. That said, I hate those cars, because of such machines, things like Japanese tiny cars (kei) are often hard to get or simply illegal, due to concerns of collisions and accidents, and living in a large city, those would fix most of the issues. But no - big car goes vroom! Big car strong! Big car for bester person! Me big car!

    The analogy I always use when describing British Leyland to other americans is "Imagine if Chrysler owned General Motors and Ford, it owned all of Detroit, and all the brands." Dodge, Ford, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Plymouth, Lincoln, Pontiac, Mercury, Chrysler, everyone under the same roof in the same town with the same budget, and they have to fight each other.

    Anything built in JP will last a lifetime if maintained. Australian professionals don't salivate over Makita - made in JP for no reason. For anyone who hasn't watched Japanese house construction and wants an unexpected hard-on over the absolute perfection with which hand preproduce 20 meter beams etc for example and fit them together with not as much as a 0.5mm gap, give it a go.
