BUTE had overnighted at James Watt Dock, Greenock, and, in the next few images, she can be seen in the early morning mist, far away in the background, and arriving from Greenock and loitering off Wemyss Bay and waiting for her sister ship ARGYLE to leave the pier for her sailing to Rothesay. 

With ARGYLE now clear and on her way to Rothesay, BUTE heads into the berth at Wemyss Bay pier.
