Ashley - at the top right of this web page you'll find a search window. Type in the name Bessette and hit the search button. That will provide you with links to various other pages on this website where you can find some of the information you're looking for. But you won't find any record of Miss Bessette's impressions of the ship when she first saw it. Very few survivors left any record at all of their thoughts or opinions, and if they did it was generally of their impressions of the ship when they last saw it!
