PS Waverley certainly seems to be doing well loading-wise and she is running well in the 2022 season. Normally she cruises at about 14 knots (car ferry speed) but recently according to AIS she's running at 15k plus (her max is about 18.6). Here the ship is pursuing the Ayr Harbour pilot boat as she returns from a cruise to Girvan and Ailsa Craig on a wet and grey 15th August.
