The Scottish government has recently bought two freight ferries to strengthen the fleet of the state-owned Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd (CMAL). The sister vessels, MV Helliar and MV Hildasay, serve the Northern Isles network from Aberdeen to Kirkwall, Orkney and Lerwick. The 1997 and 1999 built ships had previously been chartered from Fortress, but a formal deal has been completed and they will now join the CMAL fleet. The previously acquired passenger ferries are the MV Hjaltland, MV Hrossey and MV Hamnavoe, which operate on the Orkney and Shetland routes.
