Tuolumne gold dredge, more than 100 yards (92 m) in length and floated on its own self-made pond of water, operated from 1938 to 1951; although, it spent some of that time flipped on its side. It was built 1937 for a cost of $543148, but was involved in a lawsuit to sort out full payment. - AsNotedIn
