Among the better boats are those owned by John Kelsey, “The Beltrami,” a new $4,000 boat he has built this winter, when completed will be the very finest of its kind in northern Minnesota. The “Indian Girl” is another Kelsey boat. “The Storm King”, the “Yankee Doodle” and launches owned by A. P. Chandler, A. A. Warfield, Harry Masten, F. S. Lycan, M. S. Gillette and Gill Brothers are among the high class boats that will be seen on Lake Bemidji. (May 1911)
