Being a nosey bu*ger, I made a recent FOI application to the Marine Scotland regarding MV Scotia.
Initial purchase and fitting out for the MV Scotia was £20.9 million and that the budget and actual running costs of the MV Scotia during the fiscal year 2008 were as follows:
Running costs £1.821 million
Fuel £0.785 million
Total £2.606 million
Value for money?, I will let you decide on that
