Winninghoff Delivers Tour Boat

Operating on the upper Charles River ii

Waltham, Mass., the "Totem Pole" is the first rive tour boat to operate on this section of river sinci 1889 when a 150-foot steam boat was forced out o operation by low bridges. While the low bridges still stand, Captain John Connor was deter mined to start a tour business that would takf advantage of the Charles River's recent reclama- tion from polluted obscurity. Faced with shoal draft, low bridges and a need for wheelchair acces- sibility, Totem Pole Tours contracted with

Winninghoff Boats to design and build a custom welded aluminum tour boat. Delivered this past summer, the 30-foot long passenger boat has a 9- foot beam. The vessel can carry 30 passengers and features a bow door/ramp for wheelchair access and a hydraulically-controlled roof to clear the low bridges. For more information,
