MV Clyde was built at A. & J. Inglis in Pointhouse, Glasgow, and equipped with engines by L. Gardner and Sons, Manchester. She was used for inspections and conveyance of Trustees of the Clyde Navigation Trust (now Clydeport) on special occasions. Sometimes she was used for special excursions.[1]
From 1984 to 1993 she was used by Invicta Line Cruises of Chatham for services between Southend and Strood.[2]
