The great ship SS Great Britain can be found in a specially adapted dry dock in Bristol Docks. The hull is being kept dry to prevent corrosion.

The SS Great Britain was a world first when she was launched in Bristol in 1843. This uniquely successful ship design brought together new technologies in a way which transformed world travel.
Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the most daring of the great Victorian engineers, conceived the groundbreaking combination of a screw propeller, an iron hull, and a massive 1000-horsepower steam engine.
She was immediately successful - on her maiden voyage across the Atlantic the ss Great Britain easily broke the previous speed record.
Although effectively a prototype, she continued sailing until 1886, and travelled thirty-two times around the world and nearly one million miles at sea.
She was finally abandoned in the Falkland Islands, in 1937, after more than 40 years use as a floating warehouse.
In 1970 an ambitious salvage effort brought her home to Bristol, where today she is conserved in the dry dock where she was originally built.
The SS Moyie was built in 1898 for the Canadian Pacific Railway. It carried passengers and freight on Kootenay Lake in British Columbia for 59 years. Today it is the world's oldest intact passenger sternwheeler, and has been beautifully restored and open for tours in Kaslo, BC.
