For decades, she was a familiar sight on Norwich and Norfolk s waterways.
From the 1930s until the 1950s, Regal Lady, then known as Oulton Belle, was one of the Yarmouth-Gorleston Steam Packet Company s fleet of pleasure steamers.
The Regal Lady on a late holiday cruise on the River Yare near Norwich in September 1972.
But many children who grew up in Norwich in the 1970s and 1980s will also have fond memories of a trip on her.
During that period, people used to be able to enjoy riverside cruises on the boat, when Regal Lady was moored close to Foundry Bridge, near Norwich Railway Station.
South Bay Sparkle will light up the harbour
South Bay Sparkle is aimed at raising funds for three local charities over the festive period by lighting up South Bay harbour.
The project involves South Bay businesses, the fishing and yachting community and residents.
Organisers have posted on their fundraising page: “2020 has been a horrid and for some a truly devastating year and so as we enter the Christmas holidays, the South Bay wanted to give a little back to the community as well as bringing a touch of sparkle and Christmas magic to the harbour.
The initiative will raise money for three local charities
