Commentaires du Broker
This boat has a rich history, which I have briefly outlined below. Proving to be very robust, operating as a passenger tour boat on the sea, also ideally suited for inland waterways, remembering that she was originally designed to be beached.
Offering indoor covered seating and outdoor seating proving to be very versatile for the UK weather. There are toilets, drinks and snacks provisions, affording wide panoramic views inside and out.
Boat operating licences are up to date, with a full maintenance record and engine servicing. The engines ran well for the engine video.
Construction and Early Operation (1921 – 1958):
• Built in 1921 at Haywards Boatyard, Southend, and launched by Crane for the Southend Corporation loading Jetty.
• Originally launched as "Britannia"; later referred to as "Britannia 1" in recognition of the royal yacht participating in the 1921 Southend regatta under King George V.
• Operated by Charles and Arthur Myall from Southend beach, with a sister ship, 'Julia Freak', serving a different organization.
• The Myall brothers expanded their fleet with a second vessel, "Southsea Britannia," leading to the distinction of "little Britannia" and "big Britannia."
• Requisitioned by the Royal Navy during WWII on May 27, 1940, for operations at Dunkirk and later served as an inshore minesweeper.
• Returned to Myall brothers post-WWII and resumed passenger services until 1958.
Subsequent Ownership and Modifications (1958 – 2018):
• Sold to The Thames Motorboat Company, renamed "Thames Britannia," with significant modifications including an enclosed bridge and covered stern deck.
• Further sold to Plymouth Boat Cruises and renamed "Plymouth Princess," receiving extensive alterations such as a new superstructure, enclosed saloon, and upper deck, likely completed at Mashfords Boatyard.
• Additional modifications occurred from 2005 to 2007, including installation of restrooms and relocation of access points.
• Continued renovations were made from 2013 to 2018 to improve seating and life raft arrangements.
Current Status (2018 – Present):
• Currently operates on the Forth for boat tours, continuing its legacy as a historical passenger vessel(current passenger capacity130) through various adaptations and ownership changes.
This overview highlights the rich history and evolution of the boat, emphasising its significance in maritime service and the changes it has undergone to meet operational demands over the decades.
