History:
A fire, described as ‘fierce’ by Clyde Coastguard and potentially polluting, broke out at Friday, 2nd July, 2010, around 3.30pm, on the 100,000 tonne self-discharging bulk carrier Yeoman Bontrup, moored at the Glensanda SuperQuarry in Morvern, opposite the Isle of Lismore.

The ship came into Glensanda at around 9.00pm last night (1st June). While she was loading today, a fire broke out on a conveyor belt which carried the fire to the ship, causing gas cylinders onboard it to explode – a particularly dangerous form of explosion..
