The Adam E. Cornelius looks like a "river" boat but it's not. A "river" boat is one designed to go up the Cuyohoga River in Cleveland. That means a boat around 620 feet long with a width around 60 feet. The Adam E., at 680 feet long by 78 feet wide is too big. Like the David Norton the Adam E. is noisy inside and doesn't have much cubic capacity. Compared to the other 680x78 foot ship owned by ASC (John J. - the former Charles Wilson) the Adam E. comes in a distant second.
