Tha b脿taichean air a bhith riatanach dha coimhearsnachdan iomallach nan eilean air cost' an Iar na h-Alba fad iomadh linn. Nam measg tha b脿taichean carago Cal Mac a bha a' frithealadh Innse Gall anns na 40an, na 50an, na 60an, agus na 70an - na b脿taichean a th脿inig an d猫idh nam b脿taichean-sm霉id ainmeil.

'S e D貌mhnall Meek, a tha e fh猫in f矛or dh猫idheil air b脿taichean Cal Mac agus a bhios a' togail bh脿taichean modail tha ag innse na sgeulachd. 'S iomadh cuimhne phr矛seil a th'aige de leithid an Lochcarron a' tadhal air Tiriodh bho l脿ithean na bhalach 貌g air an eilean , agus nuair a bha e san 脿rd sgoil san Oban.

'S ann bho na h-eileanan a bha m貌ran de na sgiobaidhean cuideachd, agus cluinnidh sinn cuid de na sgeulachdan annasach agus 猫ibhinn bho feadhainn den luchd sgioba a bha air b貌rd.

Boats have long been a lifeline for the fragile island communities of the Scottish West coast. Amongst those were the Cal mac cargo-boats which served the Inner and Outer Hebrides in the 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s - direct descendants of the famous puffers. Keen model boat builder and Cal mac enthusiast, Donald Meek narrates the story.

He has fond recollections of the visits of the likes of the Lochcarron from his days as a young boy in Tiree, and then in Oban while at High school. Weaving beautiful, and little seen archive with these anecdotes and interviews, Donald and the Cargo Boats tells the warm, nostalgic story of these boats and their special place amongst the islanders of the Scottish west coast.
