  1. The SY Carola was designed and built in 1898 at Scott and Co’s Shipyard, Bowling, as a yacht, but used as a tender in the winter. She was reboilered in 1952, and remained at Bowling until 1964, when she was sold to a Mr Manning of Glasgow who kept her at Garelochhead and on the river Leven at Dumbarton, from which she was acquired by an owner in the south of England in 1970. She was bought in 1981 by a marine company called Plysolene, who renovated her, and fitted her with an auxiliary diesel, and diesel-powered bow thrusters. She was purchased by the Scottish Maritime Museum in 1987.
    A rare surviving example of a once-common type, the small steam yacht. She is also important as an example of the work of Scotts of Bowling, which built many small and medium-sized quality craft. She is also important as the only steam-powered craft in the SMM collection. She is on the ‘Designated List’ of the National Historic Ships Register.
