I think they would be better basing her in Stornaway, i presume that Isle of Arran will be on the second Arran/Campbeltown roster anyway, so Alfred would be a spare part based on the Clyde, whereas in Stornoway, she could do a couple of freight runs, and allow Loch Seaforth more scope to offer capacity to islanders and tourist traffic. Not sure if she could operate on the triangle though.
