- The Chauncy Maples is the oldest ship in Africa. After more than one hundred years service on Lake Nyasa [Lake Malawi], she is to be restored for use as a floating medical clinic to support the several million lakeshore dwellers whose average life expectancy is currently just 44 years. She was built in 1899 by the Glasgow firm of Alley & McLean, a significant producer of smaller commercial vessels as well as the world's leading manufacturer of steam lorries (later Sentinel Waggon Works of Shrewsbury).
