The Medway Queen comes out of dry dock

The Medway Queen was built by Ailsa Shipbuilding Company for the New Medway Steam Packet company, for the service between the Medway Towns and Southend-on-Sea. She spent the whole of her working life in this area except for occasional excursions and, of course, for her active wartime service. between 1939 and 1945 withher finest moment in 1940 when the ship and her crew made seven crossings to the beaches of Dunkirk rescuing 7000 British and French troops. Her bravery and that of her gallant crew lead to the title “Heroine of Dunkirk" being bestowed. (from her website)
More info if you are interested There is a video on this site showing her being pulled out of the dry dock.

P.S. Just heard that as she has no boiler she cannot go home under her own steam (no paddles either) so she will be under tow
