    Our first non-clydebuilt steamer. This one seems to be from Liverpool (I'm waiting for the evidence to download).
  • derangedlemur said:
    "A new steamer built at Liverpool P.S. Sybil (233 tons) replaced P.S. Meteor and became the youngest packet vessel at the Milford station in 1827. She was also the fastest steamer on the crossing with a record of 8 hours 13 minutes for a sailing between Milford and Dunmore East. " Hmm. I'm not sure that ship looks 70 years old.

    See thats the thing about Munster people, they are so much better behaved than their northern brothers and sisters! Look at the relaxed attitude of the passengers as they allow the ladies to go first (to check that the gangway is safe). As to the debate as to whether SS stood for steam or sail - Wikipedia comes down strongly in favour of Steam as Sailing Vessels had the designation SV (which I never ever saw being used:-0)

    Shannon is a very famous name when it comes to ships. The English frigate Shannon was involved in a famous battle against over USS Chesapeake and was one of the very few to come through with a victory over a US ship off Boston. As far as I remember there was a Shannon serving the Shannon estuary right up to the 60's

    Note the brass telegraphs port and starboard and the ships bell! Very beautifull
  • Swordscookie said:
    Micheál Cattigan I was admiring the bell but missed the telegraphs until you drew my attention. I also note the trunks for luggage, Michael O'Leary and Ruinair would have a field day with those, they'd never fit into the thingy:-)
