Unknown?  This photo was taken by Paul Jensen probably in the very early 1930's.

Great shot of the Pedernales sent in by Renton Kidd

Another great shot, this is the Yamanota also sent in by Renton Kidd

Second photo is cropped from the photo above, the photo was sent in by Bryan McCall.

From the book show on the left I obtained the information about the Inverlago, one of the early lake tankers.  You can see the information about the Inverlago below which is a scan of Page 291 from the book: LINERS, TANKERS & MERCHANT SHIPS by: Robert Jackson

 

There is some discrepancy between what is written in this book and what is found on Auke Visser's web site, I believe Auke's information is correct.  To see the page on Inverlago on Auke's web site click here.
