摘要：	I always appreciate hearing from readers regarding these columns. These "old boats" continue to stir memories that some may have not considered for years or make them think of items or events that they are willing to share. Many of the column subjects are boats that I worked on or witnessed working in the past, or maybe just heard others talking about. All are vessels that have made a lasting impression on me. Soon after the June 19, 2023, issue was published with this column featuring the Str. Sam Craig, I heard from Ed Shearer. Ed is the marine architect that I had mentioned in the column. His family had owned O. F. Shearer & Sons River Transportation, the last company to operate the steam sternwheel tow-boat. Ed's father, Capt. Bert Shearer, had often served as master of the Craig under Shearer ownership and regarded it as one of his favorite boats among the many that he had worked on.
