james watt
the first commercially successful steam engine was developed by thomas newcomen in 1712. the steam engine improvements brought forth by james watt in the later half of the 18th century greatly improved steam engine efficiency and allowed more compact engine arrangements. successful adaptation of the steam engine to marine applications in england would have to wait until almost a century later after newcomen, when scottish engineer william symington built the world's "first practical steamboat", the "charlotte dundas", in 1802. in 1807, the american robert fulton built the world's first commercially successful steamboat, simply known as the "north river steamboat", and powered by a watt engine.
