E. E. Rawson has completed his
pleasure boat which he is to put on
CRYSTAL Lakea 1t is of the catama-
ran style of build, entirely different
from anything heretofore seen in this
locality. 1t is made by placing twin
boats alongside each other, and floor
ing over both by broad and SUBJ
stantial deck, on which is ample
room for seats, the engine, etc. The
boats are deep, narrow, and peaked,
and of such capacity that the
heaviest weight liable to be placed
upon them will only submerge them
to about one-third of their capacity.
The boat will float on the water as
firmly and steadily as raft. The
power is a small engine with propel-
Ter. The work has been Hastily and
thoroughly done, and this will be an
other beautiful boat added to the steam
craft that have been placed on the
Lake here for the pleasure of citizens
of the town. Mr.. Rawson is a good
mechanic, and has planned and SUI
perintended the work.
