Last year it underwent a substantial amount of work while it was on land at Fay's Boatyard. When it left there it still needed a lot more work
Many people think it is a paddle wheel boat but the paddle wheels are just for show. It is propelled by two I/O's.
Sorry for the photo quality. I took it in 1985 with some old technology.

Ever seen the "Winnipesaukee Belle" cruising in a crosswind?
Sailors have!
