Historic Phoenix steamboat voyage reshaped early steam era
The World Almanac notes the Phoenix became the first ocean-gain steamboat, sailing from New York to Philadelphia in June 1809. The voyage followed owner Robert Livingston blocking John Stevens’ Hudson River route, proving the Phoenix more seaworthy than the Clermont and shaping early steam navigation.
