The Jacobite Warrior, a catamaran capable of 11 knots, will carry up to 1500 tourists a day on the globally famous waterway this summer.
The vessel was known as Les Sept-Iles when she offered cruises from Vannes in Brittany, but her new decidedly more Caledonian-sounding name represents an investment of over £1 million for multi-award winning Inverness-based Jacobite Cruises, which will soon welcome its millionth passenger to cruise on Loch Ness.
