Oh my God, everything needs tightening, replacing, ripping out-the lot! An April start is not looking possible, but fingers crossed hey?

Monarch: PS Monarch is a 26 year old paddle steamer powered by a converted Lee Howl engine. With an oil fired boiler and using compound steam technology, she plies her trade on the River Medina on the Isle of Wight. Seating just 12 passengers, PS Monarch is the worlds smallest commercial paddle steamer and just one of three passenger carrying vessels of her kind in the United Kingdom. Built at Chatham Historic Dockyard, by Brian Waters, she has worked on the River Medway and the Kentish Stour before arriving on the Island in 2008 to start a service there.
