Steam Yacht Gondola

The steam yacht Gondola is a Victorian, screw-propelled, steam-powered passenger vessel. Originally launched in 1859, she was built for the steamer service carrying passengers from the Furness Railway. She was in commercial service until 1936 and in 1946 converted to a houseboat. In 1979, by now derelict, she was almost completely rebuilt with a new hull, engine, boiler and most of the superstructure until on 25 March 1980, she was launched by Sheila Howell, granddaughter of the first master of Gondola, Felix Hamill. From 20 March 2008 Gondola became fired on Blazer Logs as a 'greener' fuel.
