Description
During the maple sugar season of the spring of 1858, a well-to-do farmer of western New York, whittled out a spiral or augur-like screw-propeller in miniature which he thought admirably adapted to the canal. He soon after went to Buffalo, and contracted for a boat to be built, with two of his Archimedean screws for propulsion by steam. Although advised by his builders to substitute the common four-bladed propellers, he adhered to his original design and with one propeller at either side of the rudder called "twin-propellers" she was soon ready for duty. She is the vessel known to history as the Charles Wack.
