[QUOTE=Acres per Second;100264]Weren't the engines diesel—then replaced by Uncle Sam after the war?

The engines that were taken for the war effort were from the Crescent III A steam Motor Yacht. They were purchased and installed in 1940. In 1946 They were replaced with the current Enterprise Diesels, which are now going to be replaced.
