Summary[edit]

Description
English: Looking NE from Portland Canal near 12th St.:

Towboat "Darin Adrian" upbound. Wooden observation deck is almost awash.

Originally named "Southern" (doc. # 266359, length 167 feet, width 36.5 feet, twin GM 12-645E7 diesels, repowered 1972, 4200 hp.), this towboat was built in 1953 by Dravo Corp. at Neville Island, Pennsylvania, and owned by Union Barge Line, Pittsburgh. In 1970, it was transferred to Cardinal Carriers, Pittsburgh, and renamed "Goldfinch". It was owned by Union Mechling and Dravo Mechling before being sold in 1981 to D&M Towing Co., St. Louis, and renamed "Majestic". In 1982, the boat was sold back to Dravo Mechling and in 1984 named "Southern" again. In 1985, it was leased to Sutton Marine Corp., Mapaville, Missouri. In 1986, it was leased to B&H Towing, Paducah, Ky. In 1988, it was sold to National Marine, New Orleans (apparently still leased to B&H). In 1992, the boat was sold to Marquette Transportation Co., Paducah, and renamed "Darin Adrian". In 2008, the boat was sold to South American interests.
