  • Le SB Will est une ancienne barge de la Tamise ( (en)) à gréement de type balestron. Elle est l'une des quatre barges en acier les plus grandes et l'un des derniers cargos à voile à opérer dans les eaux britanniques jusqu'en 1966. Après quelques années passées à l'abandon, elle a été rééquipée et remise en service par P & O (Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company). Après avoir servi quelques années comme bureau de l'entreprise, elle renavigue en charter privé hors de la Pool of London ou des docks de St Katharine pour des croisières à travers Londres, sur la côte est et au-delà. Ce bâtiment est inscrit au registre du National Historic Ships depuis 1996 avec le certificat n°234. (fr)

She currently operates out of the Pool of London from a base at Hermitage Community Moorings, Reeds Wharf and St Katherine Docks for cruises through London, the east coast and beyond. (en)
