FOR SALE | Keeping a heritage together | 2nd september 2024 |
A non-member, Moray Letham, writes: "About 50 years ago I bought an original 1903 steam launch by Simpson Strickland in Ullapool minus engine and boiler with original name plate 'Swift', (See above) I bought her from the North of Scotland Hydro Electric Co who had retained the engine and boiler out of interest and sold off the hull. It's a long and rather sad story, but I contracted with them to restore the steel hull, engine and boiler and use it for trips for the public on Loch Faskally at Pitlochry, as they were owners there. |
