About the MV Argyle

MV Argyle, Earra-Ghàidheal in Gaelic, sails between Wemyss Bay and Rothesay on the Isle of Bute. A successor to the many famous vessels that made the crossing before her, the MV Argyle is the seventh ship on the Clyde to carry the name ‘Argyle’ – bringing generations of holidaymakers to Bute’s beautiful shores.

Relax and enjoy the ride

The MV Argyle is equipped with a multitude of facilities and amenities, all designed to make your journey as comfortable as possible. Marvel at the natural beauty of Scotland’s landscape as it gently drifts past from our ample outdoor seating, take in the awe-inspiring views on the upper deck, or relax with your four-legged friend in our specially designated Pet area.
