PS Minerva was a {{GRT|306}} passenger paddle steamer that J&G Thomson launched in 1893 for the Glasgow and South Western Railway (G&SWR). She served with the Royal Navy from 1916 and was sold into civilian service in Turkey in 1924. She was scrapped by 1928. HistoryJ&G Thomson of Clydebank launched Minerva for the G&SWR on 6 May 1893.[1] She had two sister ships with slight detail differences: {{PS|Glen Rosa}}, which was also built for the G&SWR, and {{PS|Slieve Donard}}, which was built for the Belfast and County Down Railway. She worked various G&SWR ferry routes, commonly to Rothesay and the Kyles, and in winter to the Isle of Arran.[2] In 1902 she was re-boilered, as a result of which her funnel was moved further forward.[2] In June 1916 the Admiralty requisitioned her for the Royal Navy as an auxiliary patrol vessel.[1] The Turkish Navy captured her in 1917.[2] After the Armistice of Mudros in 1918 she returned to the Royal Navy. From April 1919 she served as a minesweeper.[1] In 1924 she was sold to Turkish owners,[1] who operated her as a ferry on the Bosphorus.[2] She had been scrapped by 1928.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 {{cite web |url= http://www.clydesite.co.uk/clydebuilt/viewship.asp?id=21313 |title=PS Minerva |work=Clydebuilt Database |date= |accessdate=28 October 2012}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Minerva, PS}}2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url= http://www.paddlesteamers.info/Minerva.htm |title=PS Minerva |work=Paddlesteamer.info |publisher=Tramscape |date= |accessdate=28 October 2012}} 6 : 1893 ships|Ships built on the River Clyde|Minesweepers of the Royal Navy|Patrol vessels of the Royal Navy|Steamships of the United Kingdom|Steamships of Turkey |
