PS MEDWAY QUEEN's
Christmas Wish List

Top: "Watching the wake" - PSPS Collection.       Above: The aft saloon under reconstruction - Judith Maguire

Our teams of volunteers are working hard to refit the aft saloon so that it can be used as a venue to generate much needed cash. This has been a lengthy project but good progress is now being made and we hope to be using the saloon by mid-2019. The aim is to refit this space to as near its original appearance as possible but without the restaurant tables so that it can be used for a variety of functions, events, etc.

Virtually all of our spare income has gone into this project but we now need to be acquiring fittings for both the saloon and the galley so that there is a catering facility on board. The galley will have to be fitted with modern equipment inside to meet hygiene regulations.
