The former paddle steamer, PS Compton Castle in Truro in Cornwall has been restored and turned into a restaurant employing ten full time staff. The paddler has arrived from Looe where it has been for four years. Brothers Danny and Larry Watson have signed an agreement to lease the vessel for the new venture. The stationary steamer is the sister ship of the fully operating PS Kingswear Castle which still takes tourists up and down the River Dart in Devon.
