TULE PRINCESS Needs a New Home - ASAP!
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2025 6:03 pm
Hello Fellow Steamboaters,
Capt. Mack here. I will get straight to the point. The Tule Princess Steamboat Co. in San Angelo, Texas ceased operations June 21, 2022. Tule has been on her trailer stored at a family member's rural property in West Texas since that date. Tule MUST be moved as soon as possible. She needs to be with someone that has the time and inclination to work on her and could come up with a plan for her. I and my "crew" no longer can.
I am entertaining ANY sincere inquiry as to coming to get her in West Texas and transporting her where either a single owner or group of steamboat supporters are willing to undertake the continuation of keeping the LAST full-sized Walking-beam Engine Side Wheeler in working order. If you can come to West Texas to get her, you can have her!
Serious inquiries can contact Capt. Mack (text or call) at: 325-895-0349, current location Veribest, Texas
