⚓️ On This Day: The Legend of "The Boat" Began! 🚢 ​On this day in 1983, Newcastle’s nightlife changed forever as the Tuxedo Princess officially opened its doors! ​Parked right under the Tyne Bridge, this former car ferry was transformed by Michael Quadrini into a floating palace of neon lights and 80s glamour. For decades, it was the place to be seen on the Quayside. ​✨ ​The Princess hosted icons like Kevin Keegan and the cast of Auf Wiedersehen, Pet. It even provided a start for a young Cheryl Tweedy, who worked on board before her rise to fame in Girls Aloud. ​🌀 ​If you spent a night on "The Boat," you definitely remember: ​🧗 The Gangplank: A true test of balance after a few cocktails. ​🕺 The Revolving Dancefloor: A legendary feature that claimed many victims! ​💨 The Tyne: That unmistakable river smell as you headed for the exit. ​It’s been 17 years since she sailed away for the last time, but the Tuxedo Princess remains a massive piece of Geordie history. ​What are your wildest memories from the revolving dancefloor? Let us know in the comments! 👇 ​#Newcastle #Geordies #TuxedoPrincess #OnThisDay #NewcastleHistory #TheBoat #80sNightlife
