<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 206586, member: 44&quot;]Geee, the listing of her burning in the NY Almanac said the lost was $200,000. That was good money back then. $200,000 1856 is equal to nearly $5,500,000 today. The owners may have burnt it down for the insurance. Also the boat owners may have suspected their trade was coming to an end, which might have also egged them.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
