The Mary D Hume was a steamboat made in Gold Beach Oregon in 1881. The Mary D Hume had a long and interesting career. It was a whaling ship in 1899-1901 then it was brought to Seattle to be converted into a tugboat. In 1914? It sank in Seattle but it was refloated and had its superstructure replaced. In 1978 it was retired after 97 years of service! It was brought to the port of Gold Beach and was turned into a museum ship but the cradle it was being put on collapsed on the aft side slamming the stern into the floor almost breaking it in half. Then the forward side collapsed as well and the ship sank in 4 feet of water. They were unable to bring it back up so it was abandoned in place. currently it is in really bad shape and it looks like the funnel will collapse any day now and when that happens the rest of the ship will likely collapse soon after it.

Actually has a pic!!!

He’s very silly
