''Elmer S. Dailey'', originally known as the ''Claire B. Follette'', is a wooden barge built by William H. Follette in 1915 at Tonawanda, New York, and rebuilt and renamed in 1928 by Brown Drydock on Staten Island, New York. It was used to transport materials from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. It is the only known surviving Erie Canal boat and is one of a few remaining wooden-hulled canal boats. It sank in 1974 along with the ''Priscilla Dailey'' and the ''Berkshire No. 7'', and has deteriorated to the point that a salvage operation could result in it breaking apart. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 21, 1978. ==Description== The barge is an Erie Canal boat that has two Fairbanks-Morse in-line six-cylinder diesel engines. It measures long with a beam. The depth of the hold is listed at and it had a listed capacity of 101 tons.〔 Clouette describes the ''Elmer S. Dailey'' as having an "almost rectangular hull in section and plan, with bluntly rounded bow and stern...the bulwarks, perforated by scuppers, rise up to the stem which is slightly raked back. There are prominent strakes in the bow and topside along the sides of the vessel. A coaming about high frames the single large cargo opening which occupies about two-thirds of the boat's length". The cargo opening is covered by convex hatch covers. Towards the stern is a rectangular pilothouse and a low cabin with a companionway which has a protruding stack.〔
