PSPS Visit to George Prior Engineering Part 2

The Jeanie Deans Lounge will remain largely untouched. Tony Horn's splendid bar will see further service. The remainder of the furniture is stacked along the centreline. |
| The view from the Engine Room Alleyway. Much too light and airy for Ken, I think. |  |
 |
Back on the Promenade Deck, the starboard sponson takes shape. Note the blue ship turning to leave harbour. |
| The old steel after deck shelter
coming down to make way for the new aluminium one. The
weight saving is needed to allow for the new aft double
bottom beneath. This work is being wholly funded by the Society. |

Having left the ship, we were guided around GPE's compact yard. Parts of Waverley were in most of the workshops and storage areas. The paddle wheels are in a temporary enclosure, behind a blue tarpaulin. |
| Ian McMillan told us he was very pleased with the condition of the wheels. They were built 10 years ago at Avonmouth. Only about £2,000 worth of work was needed to refurbish them. |  |

View along the dock side. The port sponson was due to be fitted in the following week. |
| Fortunately Jim McFadzean was on duty on the Balmoral when this happened to his old ticket office and cabin. |  |
