Judge Sewall must have sunk more than one time. She sank once a few hundred feet from my dock. Did it drift there or was intentionally run-aground? :confused:
IDK.

You are right, I don't think the Inn would have put more money into her. Poor Judge Sewall. And then she sat half sunk by Wolfeboro Neck while they waited for state permission to sink her forever. It didn't happen so the cut her up. Sad.

The Belle will need work underneath to operate on anything bur calm waters. Under power, it would stagger and "crab" from one course to another. The side wheels (mostly) turned, but provided no propulsion. They were passive in "operation"--if you could call it that. :rolleye1:
Usually, it would pass by on quiet Friday evenings loudly playing "Mack the Knife", but rap "music" was a specialty in later years. :rolleye2:
