This is a relatively small marina but we found two Thames Steamers here. One was Windsor Belle and the other was Alaska, seen here wrapped up for the winter and moored alongside a narrowboat. Alaska is powered by a small inverted vertical duplex engine in an incredibly cramped machinery space. She sails mainly on charters.
