Hello Mersey Shipping. What a beautiful video. Good lighting and a clear day. Nice diddy-looking Ferry. Interesting she needed a tug to assist into the entrance of Cammel Lairds. Was the tide ebbing, and thus the tug was keeping the stern from being taken with the tide. Any idea what the red tug-like boat behind Finlaggan was? Another excellent video. Thank you.

That was Iguazu the dredger. Not sure why she was there, she was there way before Finlaggan arrives, maybe dredging the dock entrance. Thanks once again 👍
