Did freight and passengers not get delivered before the age of steam boats? Yes. Arrival times could be within weeks, sometimes months, and many boats didn't arrive at all, and today, make popular diving atractions. So? What does that mean other than sometimes pure sailboats foundered. That most certainly does not belie the fact that motorboats also founder! Wilbur Hubbard |
