Identify this two mast one funnel side paddle-steamer boat circa 1900

I came across these photos of the Robert Fulton's original Clermont and it appears that the paddle wheel is located more amidships, than in the original posted photo. Iβm not sure if that is just optics or if the model reproduction in 1909 was not completely accurate or if it is a different vessel all together.

I believe this is the "Clermont" replica, built for the 1909 celebration.
The original Clermont the first steamboat built by Robert Fulton, of the Hudson-Fulton Steamboat company, which ran in New York up the Hudson river. It was the first commercially successful steamboat operated on the Hudson, or North River.
The flag being flown from the leading mast appears to be the Hudson-Fulton flag, details of which can be seen on this page.
The Clermont was a North River steamboat.
