Summer’s Coming – Waverley goes to Garvel Drydock

A sure sign that summer is coming (or at least that part of the year that used to be summer) – Waverley made her first voyage of 2010 yesterday when she paddled down from Glasgow to Greenock and entered Garvel Graving Dock for her pre-season overhaul. In fact the vessel looks remarkably good going into the dock – a happy condition for which we must thank all of her winter crew and her loyal band of able volunteers
