With a hull length of 178 feet (54 m) and a beam of 49 feet (15 m) she appeared as a typical representative of the North American sidewheelers around the second half of the century and was the largest steamer on the lake at that time. The huge paddle wheels were driven by a single-cylinder steam engine of 450 hp (340 kW) at approximately 26 rpm. The power was transferred from the vertical single cylinder to the wheel shaft by the walking beam, high above the upper deck, oscillating in the frequency of the paddle wheels. Known as "The Mount", her kitchen and restaurant service became famous. </p><p>On December 23, 1939, a nearby railroad station caught fire from an overheated stove. The fire soon spread to the ship, tied at the dock, and destroyed it. Efforts to cut <i>Mount Washington</i> loose were to no avail as it was a time of extremely low water and the hull was stuck fast in the mud of the lake bottom. Soon after, a local company was formed to build a new ship. Since Europe was already at war, and the US was stocking steel in a pre-war munitions build-up obtaining steel was impossible. Instead, they purchased an old sidewheel vessel on Lake Champlain: the <i>Chateaugay</i>, a 203-foot (62 m), iron-hulled sidewheeler that was being used as a club house for the Burlington yacht club. It was cut into sections by Boston General Ship & Engine Works and transported to Lake Winnipesaukee on rail cars. A new twin-screw vessel was designed for the hull being welded back together at Lakeport.<sup id="cite_ref-hedblom_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hedblom-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Powered by two steam engines taken from another ocean-going yacht, the new MS <i>Mount Washington</i> made her maiden voyage on August 15, 1940. </p><p>Two years after her launch, the new <i>Mount Washington</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s engines and boilers were removed for use in a navy vessel during World War II.
