[ONLY 1 AVAILABLE]

CONDITION -- Excellent

HISTORY -- The PS Skibladner is a paddle steamer operating on the lake of Mjsa in Norway. Skibladner is a side wheel design, and her maiden voyage was on 2 August 1856, making her the world's oldest paddle steamer still in timetabled service. Originally intended to provide passage from the train station in Eidsvoll to the towns of Hamar, Gjvik, and Lillehammer along Mjsa, it still operates the same route, but now offers scenic tours and cultural events during the summer months. The ship sank while in winter storage twice: once in 1937 and again in 1967. After having been raised it has undergone significant renovation.

[ONLY 1 AVAILABLE]

CONDITION -- Very Good

HISTORY -- The origins of the Red Funnel Line date back to 1820, when the Isle of Wight Royal Mail Steam Packet Company was established by Cowes interests to operate the first steamer service from there to Southampton. In 1826, the Isle of Wight Steam Packet Company was formed in Southampton, and by the following year the two companies had started coordinating their operations. In 1860, the Southampton, Isle of Wight & Portsmouth Improved Steamboat Company was created to compete with the two established operators, and the threat posed caused the two older companies to merge. They subsequently acquired the assets of the Improved Steamboat Company in 1865.
