  • The repair costs have been deemed "eye-watering" by transport spokesperson Sue Webber, highlighting the ongoing controversy.
  • The MV Caledonian Isles had the highest repair costs, totaling over £22 million, with significant downtime affecting service.
  • The crisis includes delays in constructing replacement vessels, which have seen costs quadruple.
  • CalMac's fleet revamp aims to add six new vessels to improve reliability for islanders amid current challenges.
