Fitzgerald hatch crane question

Post by fitz301 »

Hi all,

I'm working on a 3D model of the Fitz and I'm looking for some reference material concerning the hatch crane and other machinery.

I'm going for as much realism as I can so I could use as many photos as possible. I think I've pretty much seen all the photos around in books and on the web, but if anyone has any information on the type of hatch crane used, who manufactured it, or which other lake freighters used the same type, I would greatly appreciate it.

TIA.
Ernie
