River Thames: ferry service, at rest.

            Duchess M and Princess Pocahontas at base, on the River Thames at Gravesend. These two boats provided the Gravesend to Tilbury ferry service until, I think, 2018: usually Duchess M (nearer) with Princess Pocahontas being used when the smaller boat was being serviced. Princess Pocahontas also did pleasure cruises up and down the Thames.
It's either a Sunday (when the ferry doesn't run) or the service is suspended due to the mist: I always took the view that if the crew was safe, so was I. The ferry service, by this time, was run from the nearby Town Pier pontoon, although when I first began using it, it did run from the pontoons in the photo. These have since been removed and neither boat is on the river.
