Today we fly the flag to mark Merchant Navy Day, remembering and honouring the service, courage and sacrifice of merchant seafarers, past and present.

For generations, merchant seafarers have played a vital role in keeping our nation supplied and connected with the wider world, often working far from home and facing challenging and dangerous conditions.

Here aboard Glenlee, we are proud to fly the Red Ensign every day. But today, it carries an especially meaningful message. It is a symbol of remembrance, respect and gratitude for the thousands of men and women who have served, and continue to serve, in the Merchant Navy.

As we raise the flag today, we remember those who never returned home, honour those who continue to work at sea, and recognise the vital contribution of merchant seafarers to our maritime heritage and our nation.

Fair winds and following seas.

One of Glasgow’s most recognisable maritime figures has returned to her place overlooking the River Clyde, as The Tall Ship Glenlee’s figurehead, affectionately known as “Mary Doll”, was craned back into position earlier this week following an extensive programme of conservation work.
