Canna is counted among the smaller islands. The ferry that departs from Mallaig and goes to Canna will therefore make one or more stops. At least on the island of Rum.

Hi Charles, thank you for your response. I have adjusted it to how it is described in the source article.

As for your last paragraph, you are absolutely right. However, the data does serve as a decent starting point. Based on normal passenger occupancy, air travel harms the environment more than ferry travel.

Unfortunately, this is not possible and the options over land or by air are better.

Hi Ollie, found some info on the car deck here: https://bergencruiseline.no/theproject-2/ “The BCL concept is a large cruise ferry of 210 x 31 meters with the capacity of 2 380 passengers and 200 crew combined with a large car deck and cargo capacity.”

I hope so too. Collecting funding can be a bit more difficult in the current times. In addition, due to the high gas prices, LNG ships have suddenly become much less attractive than before. But it would certainly be a nice route!
