Mersey Ferry - Royal Iris of the Mersey

[@jefflloyd1388]

the original lies on it's side on the Tames...our group used to play on it...along with the Beatles..it was nick named the fish "n" chip boat...so much for Liverpool even the Cavern is on the wrong side of the road...........

This is the ferry I always remembered as kid, so many memories on it

The old girl was rockin' & a-rollin' there for sure. Loading the rope on those capstans in a current and swell like that is an extremely dangerous job.

+musicplateau1 It's a very fast incoming tide on the Mersey - the landing stages are on floating pontoons and some folk get sickly before they even get on board...

Never realised the Mersey could be so rough
