Residents in Balloch might’ve spotted a rather surreal sight travelling through the streets earlier this month.
After more than 18 months of waiting, Sweeney’s Cruises finally had their new vessel - Avocet - delivered, with the final leg of the boat’s journey from Rotterdam to Loch Lomond seeing her travel through residential streets in the village.
And John Sweeney from the firm admits that finally seeing the company’s new purchase in Balloch was a poignant experience.
