One of the photos in the ice show her sitting on concrete blocks. Is she permanently attached to them or does she float?

Vladimir, many thanks for sharing your photos and drawings of the St Nikolai. I had thought that at some point I might try a model of Derzhava but the photos of St Nick are a very big plus for accuracy and reality.

This one is from Wikipedia, with substantial cleaning and retoning.
I know nothing about it.

These boats of russian rivers are very interesting, not very much is known about them in the western part of the world. A friend of mine was showing me some pictures of sternwheelers on russian rivers - the construction was close to Ohio river boats. In the first sight one would imagine "American river steamers". I will see about some pictures.
