Forgive me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the term "handbomber" refer to that fact that the boat is hand fired vs. stoker fired? that being the case, and again, I may be mistaken, didn't the Crapo have stokers installed in the 1960's? If so, that would leave the Chief Wawatam as the last "hand fired" boat on the lakes.....
