WILLIAM IV TO SAIL AGAIN
It’s been high and dry in Newcastle for more than a decade, but the replica steamship, William the Fourth, is set to get back in the water.

The bicentenary replica of Australia’s first ocean-going steamship will again be used for harbour cruises.
It’s open for inspection at Denison Street, Carrington this weekend.
