In the four short years that the Durley Chine was above water, no photograph was taken that has survived. This is a vessel of nearly the same tonnage and dimensions from the same builder and year. The Durley Chine was likely very similar, if not almost identical. Or perhaps not.

Harlem
Could the Harlem have been a Great lakes steamer?

A ship is a large watercraft that travels the world's oceans and other sufficiently deep waterways, carrying goods or passengers, or in support of specialized missions, such as defense, research, and fishing. Ships are generally distinguished from boats, based on size, shape, load capacity, and tradition.
