This was the first successful voyage of a steamboat, proving that steam was indeed a viable method of propulsion, paving the way for every steamboat to come. Let's follow in the wake of his boat, the SS North River (a.k.a. the Clermont) on its incredible journey. To be clear, "The Maiden Voyage of Steam" is a romantic title I've given this, but there were previous steam powered vessels before Fulton's SS North River, including one built by Fulton himself. This is the first successful voyage to prove that steam was viable, however. I explain this in the video. 0:00 - Fulton and Background 3:06 - Construction of the SS North River 5:45 - Sea Trials 6:21 - The Maiden Voyage of Steam 10:06 - Returning from Albany 11:16 - Later Voyages for Fulton and the North River 14:52 - The North River "Clermont" Replica in 1909
