About TS Queen Mary

Launched in 1933 from the world-renowned William Denny & Brothers shipyard on the River Clyde, TS Queen Mary is a definitive masterpiece of Scottish maritime engineering. As the last remaining passenger steamship of her class, she represents a golden era of world-class craftsmanship, having served as the pride of the Clyde for generations of travellers and coastal communities.

Today, her restoration is a venture of national significance. This project is dedicated to the meticulous preservation of heritage, transforming a historic icon into a sustainable asset for the 21st century. Through strategic investment, TS Queen Mary will emerge as a premier destination for heritage tourism, an educational beacon for marine craftsmanship, and a catalyst for profound community and economic impact.
