A section of the science fiction novel The Fabulous Riverboat.

DESCRIPTION:
The Riverboat moved through his dream like a glittering, twenty million carat diamond. There had never been a boat like it nor would there ever be another.
It would be named the Not For Hire. No one would ever be able to take it away from him, it would be so strongly armored and weaponed. Nor would anyone be able to buy or rent it from him. It would be Not For Hire. The name glowed in great black letters against the white hull, NOT FOR HIRE.
