A new ferry built for the Stornoway to Ullapool route has made its first passenger sailing.
The £42m MV Loch Seaforth had previously done berthing trials at the two harbours.
The ferry has capacity for 700 passengers, 143 cars or 20 commercial vehicles.
It was named after a mail boat that sailed between Lewis and the Scottish mainland from the 1940s until the 1970s.
