Art, Ocean Liners, Yachts, and More…

Marine arT conTinues To fascinaTe shiP loVers – ThaT’s you. The power and dynamics of a cargo vessel; the working ideology of the picturesque tugboat; the calm, soothing cruise on an excursion steamboat

of the past; and the beauty and luxury of a bygone era of transatlantic passage on board an exquisite ocean liner: all command our attention. So i hope you enjoy the works of the various marine artists whom SSHSA member and renowned marine artist bob Semler introduces to us in this issue of PowerShips.in our conTinuing highlighT of ocean liners, william miller offers an affectionate his-

tory of the Antilles, a mid-size liner built in the 1950s for the French Line, which decided to not build big lavish liners at the time. built for their Caribbean service, the Antilles present-ed an especially nice appearance in the tropic, blue waters. Her interiors were French con-temporary with hints of Art Deco of the 1930s. Her first class main lounge, for example, included heavily-embroidered chairs quite similar to ones found on the exquisite Normandie of 1935. in 1971 she struck an uncharted reef, caught fire, and the life of one of the great liners for the French Line was sadly over.

Also Inside this Issue• The sTeaM yachT ss Delphine is a working

historical vessel from the Golden century of steam and motor yachting in America. Captain bob Cerullo presents the story of a grand old yacht that has gone from near-destruction to pristine condition.

• for 44 years The ss Keewatin was immovable, sitting in little Lake Kalamazoo, michigan. Steven Duff documents the return of the Keewatin as a maritime museum and community center, an incomparable asset to the rehabilitation of Port mcNicoll on the St. Lawrence Seaway.

• PhilliP siMs uses an early-1969 mediterranean voyage of the C3 break bulk cargo ship Doctor Lykes to portray the life of a crewman aboard such a ship.
