'Messrs. Yarrow and Hedley have nearly completed two steam launches for the Viceroy of Egypt, one of which is designed for ordinary use, and the other for the Viceroy himself. This latter is 40 ft. long, 6 ft. 9 in. wide, provided with a locomotive boiler with the cylinders fitted on each side of the firebox after the fashion adopted on most of H.M.'s launches.'
