1902 Steam Launch
Built in Sydney in 1902, VIP and Vice-Regal Steam Launch Lady Hopetoun is a classic example of the grace and style of Edwardian steam launches of her period.
She is maintained in full operational order by Sydney Heritage Fleet’s volunteers and is available for charter on Sydney Harbour, as well as carrying passengers on scheduled Fleet cruises. She is one of the Fleet’s five operational heritage vessels more than 100 years old.
