The riverboat that ferried visiting royalty, is making waves again. Now fully restored and named 'Elizabeth Anne', she's come into her own. Her future is assured as she plies her trade as queen of the Yarra - providing guests with a view of Melbourne from a unique vantage point that is truly amazing.
The Elizabeth Anne is a beautifully maintained timber vessel, built-in 1946, she was originally designed as a troop carrier for the Royal Australian Navy at the end of World War II.
Missing out on her chance of wartime glory, she was bought by the Melbourne Harbour Trust and started her voyage on the water ferrying passengers up and down the Yarra River - becoming popular due to her ability to navigate the low bridges of the Yarra.
Since then, almost 60 years after she was first commissioned, the Elizabeth Anne is once again plying the waterways.
