Talk:SS Comet (1857)

Category:Shipwrecks of the United States vs. Category:Shipwrecks in the Great Lakes
Category:Shipwrecks in the Great Lakes is itself a category within Category:Shipwrecks of the United States. — Robert Greer (talk) 18:35, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Please clarify

 * workhorse (twice) - does it mean tugboat or just a cargo ship?
 * what's that arch-like thing on the side? NVO (talk) 19:15, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The term workhorse appears twice because the lead is a summary of the article. Shipwreck historian Fred Stonehouse called the Comet a workhorse because she was originally built as a steam barge.  Her upper deck for passengers was built later.  The arches are supporting trusses connected to the wooden deck. --Wpwatchdog (talk) 13:55, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
