Shown above is the hull of the JOHN J. WALSH, a ferry built in 1937 by the United Shipyards of Brooklyn (Crane Plant) for the Westchester Ferry Corp. of Yonkers to the dimensions of lhé.6x38.0xlh.h. Acquired by the St. Lawrence Seaway Develop- ment Corp. in July 1957, this vessel ran between Cornwall Island and Racquette Point, N.
