First, the William F. Plettner and another boat tied to the dock at what was then the Shell Chemical plant at Apple Grove, W.Va.
Two boats have left the Ohio River and are upbound on the Kanawha River. I assume the smaller boat is a midstream refueler, perhaps from City Ice and Fuel at Point Pleasant, W.Va., if it was around at the time.

The retractable looks like TAMMY GRANT, sort of.
Re the Stewart vs. Plettner: I knew that. I don't know what I was thinking... or wasn't thinking. Thanks.
The boat with the retractable pilot house is the mendota. This is my dad and i returning to the kanawha river after building a coal loadout on the big sandy, i remember the trip well.
