Explore the William M. Black dredge boat, built and commissioned in 1934 for the Army Corps of Engineers. The boat is open seasonally and is weather dependent; however, when available, guests are invited to tour portions of the engine room, boiler room, crew quarters, and pilot house.
Fun fact: The paddlewheel in front of the Mississippi River Center is from the William M. Black.
