Description

One time, a prying group of persons in New York City assembled at a ship quay. Taut to the wharf was an odd-looking boat. A flue had risen overhead the surface. From the flanks of the craft, there hoisted a strangely formed paddle wheels. Without a warning, the vapors of haze from the vent got bigger, the paddle wheels spun, and the vessel, to the bewilderment of everyone, shifted. It was called “Fulton’s Folly,” the Clermont, on her first travel to Albany.

The first craft utilized by humans was possibly the shaft of an old sprig, swung around through a fragmented twig or rod. Then a little ruffian saw that a good craft can be built by fixing some woods collectively to form a tranche. But tranches are tough to budge, so the core of a wood was emptied out by a rock cleaver or fire, to create an even improved dinghy, or shreds of birch stem were cleverly tied as one to make a willowy boat. Canoes were built also of crude panels. With that primeval boat, crossings of thousands of miles were possible across the big rivers such as the Mississippi, or on the coasts of local deeps including the Great Lakes.
