Sidewheeler Arabia

[Paulrjordan]

Hi Graham:

I just read the fascinating story of Arabia, her sinking, and then
remarkable recovery nearly a century and a half later. It can be found
at The Treasures of the Steamboat "Arabia"
http://www.1856.com/

Although John Fryant does not appear to have plans for either "Arabia"
or "Bright Star" you might check out his list of other riverboat plans
for something similar at
http://www.modelersboatyard.com/jfryant/riverboats.htm

Another interesting site for riverboats in general is Fun Riverboat
links which has loads of riverboat resources

Have a good weekend to you all from Victoria, British Columbia,
Canada.
