“…Because we were reasonably certain that the builders of Heroine worked in imperial measures, we used these units for recording (to the nearest quarter‐inch). Frame sections, as well as degrees of listing, hogging, and sagging, were measured with electronic levels (goniometers) installed in watertight housings (Cozzi, ).…”

This paper describes the design and construction of the side-wheel steamer Heroine, a representative of the 'western river steamboat' type and the earliest example of its kind to undergo archaeological study. Heroine was built at New Albany, Indiana, in 1832 and sunk on the Red River between Oklahoma and Texas in 1838. The extensive remains of the lower hull show assembly practices in use during the developmental era of Mississippi River steamboats. The wreck also reveals a heretoforeunknown technique for longitudinally strengthening these long, narrow, and very lightly built hulls.
