Beautiful ship in stunning conditions, she is the jewel in the Scottish crown! I have my wonderful father to thank for taking me on this awe inspiring vessel as a boy from the Bristol Channel to Glasgow and the Clyde as well as the south coast and Thames. Love the Waverley dearly and can't wait to sail the seas on her again in 2024! ❤🤍🖤

I can’t tell you much joy I get seeing a boat that would have been in the breakers yard in the 1960’s still in active service today. Thank you to all the people that care and preserve this beautiful boat, so people can enjoy and appreciate the technology of an old boat still active and sailing.

I’ve been on The Waverley several times in her home waters, normally from Arran. The sound of her paddles slapping the water is wonderful to hear.

It’s a wonderful sound.
