Refitted river cruiser ready to sail

The Mayflower Garden is the oldest operating vessel in the City Cruises fleet on London’ s River Thames, having been built in 1974 by Thomas Hughan of Greenwich. In 2007 the owners considered they had a choice of either selling the vessel or undertaking a major refit. The latter course was chosen and consultant naval architect Ian C Darley was retained to design the required alterations and oversee the project.
