that's a small one only had something like 4 crew members I
believe. Once rode on one of the slightly larger ones LCI(L) that
ran 4 big diesel engines hooked to two screws. There were
originally 5 or 6 of these I believe, that were converted and saw
service for a long time as the New York Circle liners that
carried tourists around the city. I spent most of the ride in the
engine room talking with the guys down there and listening to the
engines. This was a 12th grade school trip. Drove the teachers
crazy because they couldn't find me. Probably long gone by now.
