| 摘要： | As mentioned in the column last week, Capt. Joseph Chotin wasted no time after the loss of his steamer J.N. Pharr, and almost immediately arranged with the Nashville Bridge Company, Nashville, Tenn., to have them construct for him another sternwheel steamboat hull. The hull they built was 128.4 by 31.8 feet and had a 5.8-foot depth. The steel hull with a lower cabin, also of steel, was towed to Paducah, Ky., to be completed. The boat was finished at the Ayer & Lord Marine Ways, which installed the wooden second cabin, pilothouse and 18- by 18-foot sternwheel. The boilers for the new boat were supplied and installed by the Fowler-Wolfe Boiler Works, Paducah. The engines, 12-1/2s by 31.8s with a 6-foot stroke and rated at 600 hp., were used, having seen service on the original Vesta of Jones & Laughlin Steel Company, a steel-hull sternwheel towboat built at Pittsburgh in 1902. (It was dismantled in 1930 shortly after having been renamed Hercules, and just before a new steam prop Vesta came out in 1931. This second Vesta is today the J.S. Lewis of Amherst Madison.) |
