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?

The "Ocean Prince" drydock (above) was sunk in 1986 and is well-attested. New York has photos of a clearly different drydock which they place here, but I believe is actually at Shinnecock, and I have placed it there.
