Drill, Holland America Line - life boats ready to launch (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    the rings show this is the SS Rotterdam. 5 boats might indicate Rotterdam III, however her service dates were 1897-1906, so it is probably Rotterdam IV 1908-1940 which would mean 2 more boats would be to the right of the ones shown.

    On closer inspection, the ring (flotation devices?) indicate the S.S. STATENDAM. Do you think that this is the correct ship? Could the following also be the Statendam? flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2787140790
  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    It's really difficult to say. When I sharpen and enlarge this one it looks more like Statendam, When I do the other one it looks more like Rotterdam. Both ships are very similar is size and layout so it is probably impossible to say for sure, though I think it is most likely Statendam based on having 5 lifeboats in the photo and not 6.

    Hello nudecowboy, If you haven't already, be sure to check out the higher resolution TIFF file at the persistent URL above. Much more detail. Thanks!
