The MV Glen Sannox is due to begin sea trials in January
The company building two ferries for operator Calmac has warned they could be delayed for another two months.
Ferguson Marine shipyard’s chief executive David Tydeman has written to MSPs warning that they are facing “supplier issues”.
This is delaying the commissioning of the vessels’ LNG propulsion systems.
The ferries, which are being built at the company’s shipyard on the Clyde, are already six years late and hundreds of millions of pounds over budget.
The first of the ferries, the MV Glen Sannox, is meant to begin sea trials in January.
The second vessel, currently known as Hull 802, is scheduled to launch on 12 March, 2024.
