Inland Mariners Archives: Str. John Sherwin, officer quarters.
Photographed on January 6, 2000. This set of images includes shots of
each of the mate's rooms, stairways and hallways, the chartroom.
Most of the rooms look the same but this gives you an idea of the
living conditions for the ship's officers.
Chart table, looking aft and to port.
The chartroom is behind the pilothouse in a separate room.
