Default Steam engines

In the fifties, we kept our boat at Irwin Marine in Lakeport. I remember steam engines running across the trestle across the bay. Once in awhile, cinders would blow over and get embedded in those beautiful mahogany transoms. I also remember kids swimming in the area, jumping off the trestle. This was before there was any amount of boat traffic from Lakeport Landing or Paugus Bay Marina.
