I have no connection to the creator of this youtube video.

Some may find this old upscaled video interesting.
There are 21 clips and all have been upscaled to 60FPS (frames per second) with 4k resolution and slightly colourised.
There are some interesting 'boaty' scenes at :-
06:50 - A ship launch at close quarters , a bit scary !
09:48 - Venice.
13:47 - Steam passenger side paddlers.
Most of the rest is non 'boaty' but entrancing to see life 'back in the day'.
Total film length is approx 22 mins.

Fun to watch, although upscaling from 24 FPS to 60 does tend to take away the history of old films. And yes the ship launch at close quarters is an amazing view, a pity the camera did not pan to see her floating
