A FERRY operator who has been serving two remote communities for more than 40 years is expected to lose the contract.
There are no roads to Inverie, the main community on the Knoydart Peninsula, or to Tarbet, a tiny settlement on the south shore of Loch Nevis. So the only way to avoid miles of walking to either is to take a service from Mallaig, which has been run by Bruce Watt.
