| 摘要： | In the last column we looked at the Husky, built by F.W. Olcott at Paducah in 1937 as the initial vessel of the Upper Mississippi Towing Corporation. UMTC sold it in 1948 to Canton Towing Company, Canton, Mo. The boat was 90 by 22 feet and had 700 hp. from a pair of Superior diesels, and kort nozzles had been added at St. Louis Ship in 1946. The boat was equipped with radio early on, with a call sign of KBRZ. In 1950 that was changed to WA 5963. In January 1951 the boat was sold to the Pure Oil Company, Chicago. In the April 7, 1951, issue of The Waterways Journal, J. Mack Gamble was still reporting the boat in his Upper Ohio News as the "Husky No. 1." The boat had traditionally been known as that since UMTC had two other boats that were named Husky Ⅱ and Husky Ⅲ. |
