Talk:Charles L. Smith (Seattle politician)

Correction and personal memory of the accident
The name of the boat that exploded was El Phileen II. It was owned by Charles and Gladys’ lifelong friends, HD and Irene Fowler. I was aboard as the ten year old grandson and by the time my grandmother and I escaped our lower cabin several brave small boaters had arrived to take us off the burning boat without getting our feet wet.
