    The minutes of the Belfast Harbour Board, as published in the Belfast News-Letter, April 3rd, 1889, state: "... it was decided to issue a cheque in favour of Messrs. Workman, Clarke, & Company for £342 16s in payment for No 2 ferry-boat, built by that firm." www.gracesguide.co.uk/Workman,_Clark_and_Co In 1890 No 3 ferry boat was reported to have been fitted with fire-extinguishing appliances, having been placed on station in March 1889. But I can't find any mention of No 5.

    Getting there... Jan 29th, 1891: "The outlines and build of the new boat, No4, denote safety and swiftness"
