you don't know there is know anser! Clermont is the popular name of the famous North River Steamboat engineered by Robert Fulton in 1807. The North River Steamboat was the first commercially successful regularly scheduled steamer. The irony is that neither Fulton nor the paddle steamer's operators ever seem to have called the boat Clermont, nor is it at all clear where the name came from. There is today no town on the upper Hudson River called Clermont. Perhaps there was in 1807, and someone mistakenly thought the steamboat was named for the town.

The first two to cross entirely under steam were the Sirius and the Great Western, in 1838, who ran a competitive race from England to New York. The Sirius arrived only a few hours ahead of the Great Western. The two are credited with inaugurating regular transatlantic steam service.
