The death of a Scots fish farm worker who tragically drowned in a horror industrial accident could have been "avoided", a Fatal Accident Inquiry has ruled.
Clive, from Dornie, Rossshire, worked for Mowi for 12 years before his death at Ardintoul fish farm in nearby Loch Alsh. He stepped through an open gate on the Beinn na Caillich boat to a ladder on the feeding barge in a practice known as a touch and go transfer. While on the ladder, he was crushed by the boat and slipped into the water and drowned.

He was clearly very well thought of and respected by his colleagues and I have no doubt that he is still sorely missed by all who knew him."
Clive's widow has had a four-year fight for justice on her hands and is also separately suing Mowi in a civil case.
