Largs Pier Demolished
Largs Pier has been undergoing demolition of the old pier and construction of a new pier over the winter. Plans were that the new pier would be ready by first week in July, and that "arrangements" would be made to allow Waverley to berth and transfer passengers, should there be any delay in finishing the pier.
After her very successful start to what was always going to be a very difficult season, the disastrous news that the completion of Largs pier has been delayed until end of July, has come as a major blow. The contractors have announced that they cannot accommodate Waverley at Largs Pier until the end of July.
A lot of time, effort and money have been invested in planning and advertising Largs sailings and this cannot be recovered and potential passengers will be disappointed if they turn up to find no sailings.
