Great photo! Did you ever go on it yourself? I can imagine it was a bit of a bumpy ride!

I thought they cancelled the duckmarine tours as didn't both the Liverpool and London ones sink? I've been on it though.

Yeah.. And I made the family sing it before we got on lol.
I think it was resurrected after the original sank!

When we had a ride we sat at the back and after driving out the dock they deliberately reversed into the dock again to scare people (but as we'd seen it do that earlier we weren't unprepared) though the back door was wide open. Did they still do that?

I expected to see the man in the yellow raincoat wave at us, with Curious George in tow.

Wow, I didn't realise the drivers sometimes scared people like that I think, with that and the reports of the two sinkings, I'm glad I couldn't get onto the duckmarine when I tried a few years ago... Looks like the Liverpool ones stopped in 2013 after the incidents, and the London ones stopped in 2017 because their access ramp to the Thames was blocked by sewer maintenance works...
