On a 789, for this short a flight (relatively speaking...) and on a daytime flight - I would think you will be OK in WT, even if it's not the most comfortable flight you ever do...
Nice work on London-Amsterdam by ferry - not many people think to do that. It's actually a very efficient use of time: train out of Liverpool Street station around 18.30, sail overnight and get a decent sleep in a proper bed, arrive in Amsterdam by train around 10.00 the next day - much less stressful than flying if you can spare the night! Let me know if you have any questions about that trip - have done it a few times now. Seat61 website also has a good review of the journey details.
