Mississippi Queen (steamboat) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mississippi Queen (steamboat)
The ''Mississippi Queen'' was the second-largest paddle wheel driven river steamboat ever built, second only to the larger ''American Queen''. The ship was the largest such steamboat when she was built in 1976 by the Delta Queen Steamboat Company at Jeffboat in Indiana and was a seven-deck recreation of a classic Mississippi riverboat. She was later owned by the Majestic America Line. The ''Mississippi Queen'' had 206 state rooms for a capacity of 412 guests and a crew of 157. It was 116 meters (382 ft) long, 21 meters (68 ft) wide,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.majesticamericaline.com/products/Ship.aspx?ID=4 )〕(link ) and displaces 3,709 metric tonnes (3,364 tons). When in service, the ''Mississippi Queen'' was a genuine stern paddlewheeler with a wheel that measured 6.7 meters (22 ft) in diameter by 11 meters (36 ft) wide and weighed 77 metric tonnes (70 tons). The steamboat also featured a 44 whistle steam calliope, which was the largest on the Mississippi River system. The ''Mississippi Queen'' was laid up in New Orleans at Perry Street Wharf after being gutted, initially for renovation. Instead, however, the steamboat was sold for scrap in May 2009. She was towed for the last time to Morgan City, Louisiana on March 24, 2011 to be cut down. Dismantling had begun by April 7 of that year. == References ==
