Cheers, was actually filming something incredibly serious which will be at the end of the next video, but will always find time for this amazing steamer.

This is my favorite ship. I’ve seen this before in the sea.

Thanks, saw at the time on the Bay cam - wondered why it was going back and forth. Saw it last year when it docked doing a round trip from I think from Clevedon, around Lundy, then Penarth & back to Clevedon - that is some day trip !

Was actually filming another video near Coastguard cottages & spotted it approaching so quickly charged back over to the Harbour asap.

The last sea going paddle steamer.. interestingly her paddles aren't Independent, which is why she has such a large turning circle !
