The Waverley is the last sea-going paddle steamer in the world. Built almost 70 years ago she finished her working life in 1975 & was then bought for £1 by the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society. She was renovated & started her second career as one of the country's best loved tourist attractions. To date has carried over 5 million passengers & visited 60 ports around the UK.
