YouTube Video Description

This video is a tour of Brunel’s magnificent ship the SS. Great Britain, which is preserved and docked in a dry dock at Bristol. Brunel's SS. Great Britain was an ocean liner built in Bristol for the Great Western Steamship Co. The ship was launched in 1843 and made her maiden voyage in 1845. The ship was a revolutionary design. An ocean liner, it had a single screw propeller (rather than the traditional paddle wheel) which made it a revolutionary design. As such, she was a stand out and a keystone ocean liner, and among the first of the transatlantic liners. Join Chris Frame, for a quick (iPhone recorded) tour of this remarkable ship, often cited as the first true Ocean Liner. * We paid to visit SS.
