This folk song is in memory of the #steamboats that ran on the Saint John River in New Brunswick from 1816 to 1946. Not without tragedy, they were vital to growth in that era.

The History of America Flows Through the Hudson River, and the Country’s Aquatic Superhighway Is on the Rebound The bucolic river is famous for reversing its current a few times each day. Now, an ongoing cleanup effort is reversing decades of industrial contamination

With nostalgia at the helm, the Belle of Louisville steamboat keeps paddling along The sheet-cake-shaped vessel, built in 1914, evokes a simpler, more romantic era.

The love affair with steamboats along the Mississippi hasn’t waned for either Matt Kemp or the crew of the Belle of Louisville. The vessels are imbued with the romance of a simpler era. #photography #nostalgia #steamboats #mississippi www.csmonitor.com/The-Culture/...

Early Hudson River Steamboat Design, 1800-1850 - New York Almanack The 1820s witnessed two major changes in steamboat design. Sails disappeared within a few years, and length-to-breadth ratios declined.

In the United States, John Fitch experimented with marine steam power on the Delaware River near Philadelphia, while John Stevens and Robert Fulton worked between New York and Hoboken, New Jersey. #steamboats #history #NYC #marinehistory #hudsonriver

The Hudson River Overslaugh & The Old Anchorage - New York Almanack The Hudson River Overslaugh, about three miles south of present Albany, was mostly made of two sand bars (known as the upper and lower).

One of the more notable places on the Hudson River where the forces of nature have impacted the history of river transportation – and indeed New York history itself – was the overslaugh – a particularly shallow area off Castleton‘s Papscanee Island. #history #hudsonriver #steamboats

During the 19th century it was quite common for boxing matches to be held on barges floating in the middle of the river to escape the long arm of the law -- boxing was illegal in most states at the time. (continued)
