P.S. "Waverley" at Kyle-a

Since entering preservation in 1975, Waverley has been lovingly restored and is reputed to be in better condition than ever before. Cosmetically, she has regained her original 1947 condition but her navigation and safety equipment meets all of the standards required by a modern passenger ship. Her summer season often includes a few days based around Kyle and Skye, offering fans, enthusiasts, tourists, and locals the chance to enjoy stunning scenery aboard one of the finest vessels ever built. This series of images shows the elegant ship leaving Kyle, bound for Portree.

Glad you like it. Surely, the finest vessel ever to grace our shores. Even if you ignore all the history, the preservation story, and all the other lore associated with her, she is one very pretty boat. Put her against a backdrop like this and it's hard to take a bad photo.☺
