Belle of Oregon City : ウィキペディア英語版 | Belle of Oregon City
The ''Belle of Oregon City'', generally referred to as ''Belle'', was built in 1853, and was the first iron steamboat built on the west coast of North America.〔 ==Design and construction== ''Belle'' was also the first steamboat to be powered by machinery built entirely in Oregon. All the iron for her, as well as all the machinery, including the boiler and steam engines, was produced by foundryman Thomas V. Smith in his ironworkers at Oregon City. Capt. William H. Troup built the vessel for two other men, Capt. W.B. Wells and Capt. Richard Williams. Because of her iron hull, she was much more durable than most early Oregon steamboats, lasting until 1869. ''Belle'' measured on her keel and measured over her guards.〔
