In 2005 after being withdrawn yesterday, Clansman was still out of service with mechanical problems and as a result Hebridean Isles took the 0900 service to Tiree and Barra. The sailings on the Islay service marked as 'additional' in the timetable did not sail as Isle of Arran covered the main roster. Clansman eventually made for Tiree later in the day where she met up with Hebridean Isles. Clansman was first to the pier where she unloaded the relief ferry's crew cars before loading Oban-bound traffic and then moved off to sit out of the way. Hebridean Isles then came to the linkspan and unloaded her vehicles before loading her crew cars and sailing for Port Askaig, ready to resume her normal duties tomorrow. Clansman then returned to the pier at Scarinish and loaded the remaining Oban-bound cars dropped off by the relief vessel.
