Tribute to a grand lady When Sam Goldstein, President of Apex Oil Company of St. Louis, Missouri, ordered their new Hydrodyne towboat from St. Louis Ship, he wanted it to be something special. Before the boat was designed, Sam had already selected the name Gloria G, as a tribute to his wife Gloria. This new 5600 H.P. Hydrodyne measures 138' x 44'. It was designed and built by St. Louis Ship for use in the petroleum trade. St. Louis Ship is proud to have built the Gloria G, and to have shared in this Tribute to a Grand Lady. m ST.
