The DELTA QUEEN, which many a San Franciscan remembers as the scene of gay week ends, is being wrapped up for a long trip to the Mississippi. Captain Fred Way Jr. (right) stands at the wheel in the Fulton shipyards at Antioch where the wrapping is being done (below). The DELTA QUEEN has had a checkered career since she and her mate (DELTA KING) got started in Stockton 20 years ago. They were million-dollar babies, then, and were sold recently for about $50,000 apiece. The King went to the Chinese, for Yangtze service. The Greene Line Steamers, Cincinnati, got the Queen. Immediately before and during the war the King and Queen were everything from barracks to ferry boats around the Bay. Trucks had rendered them uneconomic as freight carriers in the '30s, but old-timers will never forget those over-night trips to Sacramento. World Wide Photo."

Caption: More than 6.5 million tons of sand is being barged to Stockton from the lower point of Grand Island, near Rio Vista, California, for the new Interstate 5. The mounds must "sit" and "compact" before they become useful. These barges may have to leave for a new assignment in Alaska soon, thus, sand is being stockpiled for future use. Since construction of the Peripheral Canal is simultaneous, economically enough, it is furnishing dirt in some areas for elevation of the multi-million dollar expressway. Here, the tugboat, Bannock works with one of the barges in the Stockton Deepwater Channel, California's first and largest inland deepwater seaport. San Joaquin County.

Tower Bridge with span raised to let bargeload of airplanes from McClellan Air Force Base go through. G - Jim Sadler 1/73.
Caption: Plastic "cocoons" are sprayed on A-1E's to protect them from erosion in salt water and air, before they are barged down the Sacramento River from McClellan Air Force Base to the Port of Oakland and then shipped to Southeast Asia. Heavily damaged Skyraiders are repaired immediately on location, while others are systematically and frequently flown in from various bases, regardless of war, for "staging-out." Dating back to the Korean War, the A-1's and A-1E's cannot be called obsolete. They provide the necessary and efficient low-level ground support in Vietnam. Here, the left span of the Tower Bridge, in Sacramento, California, yields to the military navigation which makes the Sacramento River unique.

Aerial view. G - Jim Sadler 1/73.

Caption: Tower Park Marina is symbolized by a water tower stationed at the entrance. Water was pumped from Little Potato Slough into the tower for cleaning and processing island vegetables in one large warehouse. The produce was transported by 20,000 freight cars annually to canneries and markets. Fires partially destroyed the warehouse, leaving three separate warehouses. This boxcar city beyond the levee started at Terminous in 1927, by Western Pacific Railroad. Rail service disappeared in 1961, when Western Pacific was replaced by modern machinery and trucks. The area was nearly vacant until 1968, when it was purchased and converted in to a marina. A recreational vehicle park with 200 camp-sites and hook-ups is scheduled for completion.

Per note on the enclosure, also see C12.14448pl (and C12.4990pl). Photo reproduced on the cover of the book, "Upriver boats--When Red Bluff Was the Head of Navigation" by Edward Zelinsky & Nancy Olmsted with the following caption: "The DOVER NO. 1 (1869-1885), the FLORA NO. 1 (1877-1885) and the barge YOLO are seen in this stereo view of Sacramento in about 1879, alongside gangplanks that rested on boats used as floating docks. The "Bonnets" on the smokestacks were more than a decoration. Used when paddlewheels burned wood instead of diesel fuel, the iron bonnets were over five feet tall and equipped with quarter inch mesh screens to catch the burning sparks that flew up and out in a steady stream, threatening to set fire to the riverside hay fields as well as the cargo on board."

Paul, San Francisco, making the voyage from Honolulu to San Francisco in 11 days in 1893. Later she was acquired by the Charles Nelson Co., who retained ownership until November 13, 1923, when, leaving Pago-Pago for San Francisco, she drifted onto the reef. The 10-man crew were landed safely, but the barkentine could not be floated, and became a total loss. John Lyman, Pacific Coast Built Sailers, 1850-1905,The Marine Digest. June 28, 1941, p. 2.

John Lyman, Pacific Coast Built Sailers, 1850-1905, The Marine Digest. June 21, 1941, p. 2.
Information on the career of the schooner MARY DODGE has been obtained from Charles R. Pollock, insurance man, Ferry Dock, Seattle. As told last week, the three-masted, 243 ton schooner, was built at Eureka, California, in 1882. From Mr. Pollock it is learned that in 1912 the MARY DODGE voyaged from Seattle to Nome tinder charter to the Alaska Investment & Development Co., headed by J. H. Moore of Port Townsend. She carried the equipment and an engineerine staff for construction of hydraulic mining ditches and Mr. Pollock was one of the engineers. The schooner sailed from Seattle in June and arrived off Nome in July. A storm forced her to lie off Sledge Island for three days before she could unload. At the end of the season, she sailed from Nome on October 21, 1912, late in the year for a sailing vessel. It took her a week to get out of Bering Sea, due to three storms, but she finally got into the Pacific and sailed to San Pedro. John Lyman, Pacific Coast Built Sailers, 1850-1905,The Marine Digest.

New steel steam schooners of greater capacity and power than the wooden lumber carriers continued to appear in increasing numbers on the Pacific Coast. The WILLIAM CHATHAM, Capt. C. J. Lancaster, made her maiden voyage in February for a lumber cargo at Raymond. Built by the Union Iron Works at San Francisco, the Loop Lumber Co. acted as her managing owners, with a large share held by the Tacoma Mill Co. The 235-foot vessel maintained a speed of I 1. 92 knots on her 200-mile trial run in January. Although capable of carrying 1,500,000 feet of lumber, her maximum draft was only 19 feet, making it possible for her to trade to many of the smaller lumber ports along the coast which were normally not visited by vessels of her size. The CHATHAM was a two-masted steamer with engines and house aft. Gordon Newell, Maritime Events of 1913, H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest., p. 221.

San Pedro, Calif. - When men were made of steel and ships were made of wood the four master LAHAINA proudly bore the record of having made the fastest trip around the Horn. But steam came and the old LAHAINA, an old tired ship, her proud masts cut short, drowsed at anchor in the slow tides off Redondo Beach - a fishing barge. Today while they were taking her to quiet harbor waters where she might lie safe against winter storms she snapped a cable line and, helpless in the tide, drove on the rocks of Rocky Point, where there were no deepwater men to coax her knowingly away from the sharp jagged teeth that were waiting, but perhaps she did not fight hard - this once proud lady of the Seven Seas.

Information included with the large print: "Salvagers End Romance of Old Three-Masted Ship. Redondo Beach, Calif. - The eventful career of the historic three-masted barkentine GRATIA now comes to an end as it is salvaged near Redondo Beach for its wealth of iron, steel, lead, zinc and wood that may be shipped in foreign bottoms to the Orient. Grounded fourteen months ago during a heavy winter storm, the boat has been tenanted by a single man who grasped the opportunity when it presented itself and successfully defended his claim to the vessel and cargo. Hugh Nabors 'captured' the GRATIA a few hours after is washed ashore more than a year ago and for months refused all offers to desert his prize. His maritime rights, secured when he boarded the vessel after it was deserted, have given him a partnership now with the wrecking crew. Nabors made himself comfortable on the grounded ship and lived there for fourteen months, rarely venturing to shore and living on the fish he caught. The GRATIA is an all-metal ship and is 260-feet long with a thirty-eight-foot beam. At least 2500 tons of metal will be salvaged, along with 500 tons of hard coal loaded into the hold as ballast on its last visit to Australia. Photo shows: The GRATIA, historic three-masted barkentine. 'Captured' by Hugh Nabors when it grounded fourteen months ago, it will now be salvaged for wealth of steel and metals. 8/16/33."

  • "SAN PEDRO PILOT June 28, 1913
  • STEAMER CASCO IS COMPLETELY WRECKED
  • Vessel bound for San Pedro goes on rocks--crew of eighteen men escape in lifeboats.
  • According to reports received here today the lumber steamer CASCO, Capt. Jacobson, went on the rocks off Point Simeon, between Piedras Blancos and Cayucos, late Friday afternoon and is a total wreck.
  • The crew of 18 men escaped in lifeboats after a terrific struggle against the tide. The boats were dashed upon the beach several miles from the wrecked steamer.
  • A ragged hole was ripped in the bottom of the CASCO and the pumps were unable to keep the hold free.
  • Owing to the high seas which roll in off San Simeon it is believed that the hull will be broken before tomorrow morning.
S. PEDRO PILOT Oct. 6, 1913 MATE LIBELS STEAMER CASCO San Francisco, Oct. 6. A libel has been filed in the U.S. District court yesterday against Swayne & Hoyt and others named as owners of the steam schooner CASCO, by John H. Tietjen former chief officer of the vessel.
