The Mount
CARGUY, In "The Boats and Ports of Lake Winnipesaukee" by Bruce D Heald, there is a 1942 photo of The Mount with a barge crane alongside, having her boilers and engine removed for the war effort. She was laid up for 4 years and then repowered with diesels in 1946. I couldn't find any info about when the II was dropped from her name.
