Solvay 24

Solvay 24, registration NY2220F, was built in 1911. It was originally towed and had a 20hp Deutz engine fitted in 1928.

The information on this page is taken from Vagus-Vagrant.fr.

Solvay sold it in 1960 and it became Canigou. It was sold again in 1965 and it was then known as Romafer. She was then dismantled at Frouard in 1976.

This is an undated postcard (and close up) showing an empty Solvay 24:

Again, another undated postcard and not even a location. Joel Kaiser who provided it says it's his paternal grandparents in the picture, grandfather Charles Kaiser with the handle in his hand and grandmother Anne-Marie sitting on the bollard:

Another undated photograph but it is apparently on the river Marne:

Here she is as Romafer at Heuilley-Cotton:
