S0115 CHRYSTENAH - Hudson River walking beam sidewheel passenger steamer. She was built at Nyack, NY for service on the lower river. Her regular run was from Peekskill to New York with commuters, stopping at several small towns along the way. She was retired in the late teens and ended up as a derelict at New Rochelle, NY. This view shows her as first built. In 1906 she was rebuilt and recieved a new pilothouse and paddle box decorations.
