The Whalsay Boat

Or more accurately one of the Whalsay boats - this ferry (Hendra) and it's sibling Linga provide the regular service between the Shetland mainland and Whalsay.

When the weather is good to ferry shuttles between Laxo (on the mainland) and Symbister - on wilder days (like today) the ferry uses the more sheltered harbour at Vidlin instead of Laxo.
