Pleasure Steamers of Great Yarmouth
Pride of the Yare at Nottingham on the River Trent and Great Yarmouth
By Neil Cox
This is a view of the old pleasure steamer Pride of the Yare. She was sister ship to the Queen of the Broads.
The Pride of the Yare left Lowestoft after a slight delay of three days due to a coal bunker fire, though fortunately the vessel was not damaged. This was recorded in the early 1950s in the local paper at the time as the fire brigade attended the scene.
