Is Scrabster Harbour big enough to support the Shetland ferries in a short/long sailing schedule? It's about 1/3 shorter to sail Lerwick to Scrabster than Lerwick to Aberdeen which might be enough to make two sailings a day possible.
It should be, as the Norrona called there, and Hjaltland/Hrossey are smaller. There's a freight yard that could be used for additional marshalling capacity if needed as well, and the existing marshalling area could be expanded quite easily as well. The question is whether there's any demand for a Scrabster run, especially from tourists.
