    VIA: Paddle Steamer Preservation Society


    Waverley departed Custom House Quay, Greenock at 11:30am today for compass swinging and adjustment before steaming up the Clyde to her home berth at Pacific Quay, arriving at 3pm.

    Certainly will Vic, sadiy we've got to wait until 2021 before she comes back to the Thames,
    I believe Balmoral is back in Bristol now but don't know if she'll be back here this year, cheers.

    Going on annual holiday we sailed on the PS Waverley in 1948, 1949 and 1950, although our first choice of steamer was always the TS Queen Mary II which is currently being restored as a museum in Glasgow.
    Does anyone else on site remember going to sea on board the Waverley seventy two years ago.?.

    Regards from
    Fouro.

    No I never sailed on Waverly that long ago Fouro, but it sure is beginning to feel like it ,
    I remember seeing the Queen Mary II when she was at London, moored at the Victoria Embankment close to Cleopatra's Needle, cheers

    Fouro, remember the heyday of the Clyde Steamer, Talisman, Jeanne Dean's, Waverley, Queen Mary.
    Remember the scramble at Gourock Pier, with the steamers lined up ready to sail.
    Great days.
    Vic
