These are some of the many projects under way at Bollinger Shipyards in Sulphur, La., as part of the American Queen’s restoration.
One massive job is repainting the white wedding cake upperworks.
Describing this task in a blog post, Greg Brown, evp of the Great American Steamboat Co., writes that the workers feel like Tom Sawyer, facing 30 yards of picket fence with a bucket of whitewash and a long-handled brush.
