Museum of the Broads - steamboat 'Falcon'
Steaming past Richardson's Marina. The vessel was built in 1895 in Dartmouth for Sir Edmund Lacon of Lacon's Brewery. Derelict, it was found by Rupert Latham in 1974, and restored in 1975/6 and it first steamed again in 1977, with an engine originally built for the steam yacht 'Cecile'. By 1982, John Watson and W Le Neve-Bower had acquired the boat and later presented it to the museum where it has since been used for taking groups of visitors down a section of the River Ant.
