Waverley Calls at Eastbourne

On Thursday 12th September Waverley was welcomed by large crowds when she made her first call at Eastbourne Pier for more than 20 years.

A big thank you is due to the owners of Eastbourne Pier for undertaking work to enable Waverley to call, to the National Piers Society for their support and also to all the passengers who bought tickets to sail aboard Waverley on this very special day.

If you would like to jump in the time machine and travel back 87 years to see what paddle steamers were up to at Eastbourne on 10th September 1937 then check out the Kingswear Castle website: 10th September 1937: Eastbourne – Kingswear Castle
