"Isle of Lewis" was on duty at Oban and Castlebay in 2017 when she undertook a series of special sailings between 4 and 6 June to transport those travelling to attend the funeral of Eilidh MacLeod, a Barra schoolgirl who died in the Manchester Arena bombing. As a mark of respect, the "Isle of Lewis" was shown with her CalMac pennant, along with the Barra flag, at half mast.
