SS Explorer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with ships named "Explorer", see Explorer (disambiguation)
SS Explorer is one of the last surviving sea-going steam trawlers and is registered to Leith, the port of Edinburgh. She has been placed on the National Historic Ships Register and the SS Explorer Preservation Society is currently restoring her in the Edinburgh Dock, Leith.
It is planned that she, along with HMY Britannia will become a central part in the regeneration of Leith, a living exhibition, and a symbol of the vital part Scotland and her community have played in maritime history.
