Welcome to the website of the sternwheeler 

E.L. THUMPER.

The E.L. Thumper is a result of twenty-plus years of building and operating sternwheel boats.

  From the original Daisy to the present day Thumper, none of this would have been possible without the help of numerous friends..

2007 has turned out to be interesting year for the E.L. Thumper.  She is currently atop of Vince Hammill's (owner of the Katie H) ferry hull for bow repairs.  Check the Recent Happenings page for details

of why she's there and to learn about other summer adventures.
