摘要: We will take a break from the evolution of the diesel towboat with this writing, in order to present a subject perhaps more compatible with this special Gulf Intracoastal issue of The Waterways Journal. The vessel featured this week is another built by the Howard Shipyard & Dock Company of Jeffersonville, Ind. That being said, this type of craft was somewhat different from the graceful packets and sturdy towboats that had traditionally been built by that firm for use on the Western Rivers. In 1897, while the Howard yards were turning out packets such as the Sunrise and Tennessee, as well as the towboat Dolphin No.3 (later to become the Harry Anderson and Julius Fleis-chmann), and more than a year before the legendary packet Kate Adams slid down their ways, a diminutive tug was completed for the St. Louis & Mississippi Valley Transportation Company of St. Louis. The boat was named Henry C. Haarstick, and Way's Steam Towboat Directory states that it was named for the president of that firm.
