Interesting historical thread with a "lake workhorse" tug
some of us could have seen in place.
In the first photo, the main deck
aft is hidden, but shows the
second deck tow point, which was apparently photographed from the third deck. The third deck has a noticeable arch to it, 90# felt
and scuppers (of a sort
).
On the second deck, which is nearly flat, appears an apparent woodstove / stovepipe flashing next to the tow point in three photos (1, 3, 4, + less-so in 5, where someone has "liberated" the pipe and cap).
On a steam vessel, what was the purpose of the hose and nozzle circled below?
