C668 (ex VIC 96)
The VIC 96 is of the same design as the VIC 56, but was in substantially worse condition and static. Until recently, she has been preserved in Maryport with a display in her hold. However, along with a larger steam tug she was sold.
She has now been bought by a group of volunteers, and been restored to working condition.
Spartan (ex VIC 18)
The Spartan, built as the VIC 18 is now preserved at the Scottish Maritime Museum in Irvine. She was converted to diesel in 1961, and is now under restoration at the museum.
Auld Reekie (ex VIC 27)
Waiting for information.
