lost about 80% of the video clips i filmed on the boat due to a faulty SD card so had to use some stills on this video. Departed Largs at 12.10pm and returned at 7pm. Stopped at Rothesay , Tighnabruaich and Tarbert. It is the only sea going paddle steamer in the world. This vessel was built in 1947 and has been sailing here every summer since 1948. This may be it's last season sailing. It is losing a lot of money due to sky high fuel costs. The charity which operates this vessel have launched an appeal for £250,000.
