Athlon (steamboat) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Athlon (steamboat)
Athlon was a typical passenger steamboat of the Puget Sound Mosquito Fleet. ==Construction== ''Athlon'' was built in Portland, Oregon by the J.H. Johnston yard. Her first owners were a consortium of Jacob Kamm (and his company, Vancouver Transportation Co.), Shaver Transportation Company and the Kellogg Transportation Company. The consortium built her at a cost of $4,950. The consortium's purpose was to Captain Neusome, owner of the ''Iralda'', which he ran on the lower Columbia. Neusome had refused to fix (or “cooperate on,” as the phrase then was) steamboat rates on river. Neusome came around when ''Athlon'' was launched, and struck a deal with the consortium. In return, ''Athlon'' was sold to H.B. Kennedy, who took her up to Puget Sound.〔Newell, Gordon R., ed., ''H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest'', at page 60, Superior Publishing, Seattle, WA 1966〕
