Belle of Louisville

(#1212) from Kentucky Life Program 1212 (2006)

Host Dave Shuffett gets a behind-the-scenes tour of the Belle of Louisville, the oldest operating river steamboat in the United States. Launched in 1914 as the Idlewild, the paddlewheel steamer had a long and varied career traversing many of America’s inland waterways before being saved from the scrap heap to be reborn as a beloved symbol of Louisville’s river heritage.
