Excursion Ships -
In The Wake Of The Paddlers

This is the third in a series featuring 8mm colour films of shipping historian Bernard Cox. It features twenty three Excursion Ships (1960-1988) that took the place of Paddle Steamers on the South Coast and Bristol Channel area. Short excursion trips along the coast were all part of family holidays at the seaside. The edited collection of films ends with an extended modern day sequence depicting preserved ship Balmoral still at work in her 50th Anniversary year.
