  • The Library of Congress said:
    Kayak49: Sorry for a delayed reply. We'll fix the date and appreciate your providing the fuller history of the boat.
  • perfgeek said:
    And yet if we had kept many more of the ships, there would likely be no place to put them !-) Looks like she was drawing only 4' of water at the bow at launch and expected to draw 7' when complete. Shame we cannot see the full first name of the photographer - my _guess_ would be George W. Lord but that is just a shot in the dark for the first name.
