It is a small class open deck freighter and named the "Lizzie of Scottsville." The original Lizzie was a boat actually built in the local Tutwiler boat yard just down the street from the Canal Basin. Since no plans for the Lizzie were found the boat is our interpretation as described in the Tutweiler advertisment for the sale of his boat.  Doug and volunteers have built the boat and completed it on September 13, 2018.  Primary volunteers were Frank Sherwood, John Bowers, and Kit Decker.</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2b318640.jpg" border=0 width="792" height="612" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> <IMG SRC="2b464180.jpg" border=0 width="612" height="792" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Architect concept:  Courtesy of Thomas Morley</div> <bR> <bR> <div> Construction Photos of the "Lizzie of Scottsville" replica</div> <bR> <div> <TABLE BORDER="2" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="1011" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 381 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="2e0f4770.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="375" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="2e1f4770.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="375" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 96 WIDTH="496"><div> The hull is under construction.  Doug and Frank did all this work.  Note the port hull is leaning in at an angle so we have access to apply the siding.  It was very heavy as the siding is green rough sawn white oak.  We used a come along to assist in pulling the side back up so we could align both sides of the hull.</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="496"><div> View from the stern  end.  Early construction of the hull sides.  Note the concrete tubes that formed aligned foundations for the hull.
