Another view of the new buildings around this old commercial harbour. The historic vessel is the 1951 steam tug Flying Buzzard (aka Harecraig II). She has now sailed for new waters with a diesel in place of her 1150 horsepower compound steam engine (the latter is in the Scottish Maritime Museum, Irvine).
