Weekly Snaps
15 March 2024
Photography has always played an important role on Britannia. While she was in service, there was always a 'Yottie' appointed, nicknamed 'Snaps', to take photographs of life on board the Royal Yacht.
In keeping with this tradition, we now have our own Photographer in Residence, who has been capturing our very own Weekly 'Snaps' - a collection of snapshots of life around the ship today.
Due to construction work at Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre, Britannia has been closed this week. As part of this redevelopment, Britannia will also be gaining a new Visitor Centre and Gift Shop which will involve us operating out of temporary accommodation whilst these new facilities are being created. Our temporary Gift Shop is now open on the Ground Floor of Ocean Terminal.

Uniforms on display including one which belonged to Prince Philip, and those from the Royal Marines Band.

A last look at the former Gift Shop at Britannia, before moving into the temporary unit on the Ground Floor of Ocean Terminal.

There is something for everyone in the Shop with a wide selection of souvenir gifts, Royal gifts, china, toys, food and nautical items.

A crane loading scaffolding onto Britannia to allow the Maintenance Team to paint the Funnel. This was planned for during the removal of the current bridge walkway, which connects the Visitor Centre at Ocean Terminal to Britannia.
