The New Steam-yacht "Cleopatra" built for Il Hami Pacha, Son of the Late Viceroy of Egypt, 1858. During her trial trip, although...the Cleopatra was worked by powerful engines, and driven at a speed sometimes of seventeen miles an hour, the vibratory motion was scarcely perceptible even in the saloons nearest to the engine-room. The whole ship is of iron. Her extreme length over all is 202 feet, breadth 21, and 10½ feet deep...Her appearance in the water is singularly graceful and striking...The great novelty, however, of the vessel consists in her being fitted with engines of a perfectly new construction, known as Scott Russell's patent three-cylinder engine, and which are so great an improvement on the old plan that their general adoption both for screw and paddle vessels is now certain'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
