Sunday 2nd June Trip Update

Due to an overrun of work on other vessels at the Dartmouth Shipyard and the unplanned need for emergency repairs on another vessel Kingswear Castle’s annual refit and survey have had to be pushed back. Unfortunately this means that she will not now be able to complete her annual refit and MCA survey in time to run her scheduled fund raising cruise to Totnes on Sunday 2nd June. This trip is therefore cancelled. We apologise and are very sorry for this.

Kingswear Castle returned to service in 2023 after the first part of a major rebuild which is designed to set her up for the next 25 years running on the River Dart. The Paddle Steamer Kingswear Castle Trust is now fund raising for the second phase of the rebuild. You can read more about the rebuilds and how you can help if you can here.
