Waverley Paddle Steamer comes out of the early morning mist

That brings back fond memories of going to Glasgow in dads old 1936 Austin 12 ( 14 hr drive before motorways) to visit grandparents and going for a sail down the Clyde.
Great to see that she is still afloat.
Thanks for posting
 
Lovely.
Saw the steamer several times recently but only grabbed cellphone shots. The sound of the paddles across the water was what alerted me to it's approach the first time.

It came out of the sea mist and I was also alerted by the sound of paddles drifting in from miles away , spooky !
 
Been on it a few times in my younger days, never felt totally safe for some reason. Didn't know it was still going.
 
It also spent time in the lower Thames estuary , Picked up and dropped off customers from Southend on Sea pier.
