What has happened to this list? edit

The list title is "steamboats of the Yukon River", so why are there now so many diesel and gasoline boats listed? Also, what's with the section headings now all saying "powerboats"?? Seriously, while powerboat might be technically correct (in comparison to a sailboat, or whatever), in common usage a powerboat is a fast sport boat, usually a planing hull, that is used for recreation, not heavy commercial riverboats. This list was intended as an annex to the page Steamboats of the Yukon River article, but with the additions and reorganization since it goes far beyond this. Pyrope 20:44, 8 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
