WAVERLEY – WORTH SAFEGUARDING
Waverley is the World’s last seagoing paddle steamer: the sole survivor of a maritime tradition that began more than two centuries ago. Waverley is an astonishing survivor, a fully operational ship that has become an iconic visitor to the coasts of Britain bring a measurable economic benefit to the many towns and villages she visits. Waverley is a living reminder of our industrial and social history.
Waverley has operated in preservation since 1975 giving over 6 million the opportunity to travel on a seagoing paddle steamer. She offers passengers and viewers from the shore a unique experience. The sight and sound of Waverley lifts the spirits.
On board passengers admire the mighty steam engine, observe the paddles turning, hear their rhythmic beat, sense the gentle aroma of hot oil and steam, and enjoy the stunning coastline. Viewers from the shore, stop and admire as she passes, for Waverley is an unbroken link with our collective pasts.
Waverley Steam Navigation Co. Ltd. is the charity registered in Scotland which proudly owns Paddle Steamer Waverley. The charity is established to: “preserve, exhibit and operate Paddle Steamer Waverley for public benefit”. We seek support in achieving these objectives.
