Dugie’s 65-Year Maritime Legacy | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Dugald MacLachlan, the legendary “Dugie,” has officially retired after an awe-inspiring 65 years at sea—42 of them with CalMac. Starting in 1961, he sailed the globe from Canada to Indonesia, then returned in 1988 to become the longest-serving Motorman on the MV Isle of Mull, affectionately called “Daisy.” His unmatched knowledge kept the ship running for decades, and his final day was celebrated with a heartfelt farewell party. A true maritime icon, Dugie’s legacy lives on in the waters he loved and the communities he served. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
