A new Scottish workboat builder has announced its entry into the aquaculture market in a high-profile way . . . by transporting its first vessel more than 150 miles from Renfrew to Aviemore to show it off at last week’s Aquaculture UK 2018 event.

Dingwall-based Ace Aquactec was presented with the inaugural Aquaculture Innovation Award during last night’s Aquaculture UK gala dinner.  

This year’s Aquaculture UK has been deemed a great success by exhibitors, sponsors and the new organisers themselves.
