Lakeboats of the Okanagan
November-22-11 5:43 PM Lakeboats of the Okanagan by R. Bruce Goett MS 19 Lakeboats of the Okanagan. Page 1 November-22-11 5:44 PM (i) ABSTRACT In this discussion, the boats which provided commercial passenger and freight service on Okanagan Lake from 1882 to 1973 are examined chronologically, and in depth. Though the vessels themselves are of great interest for their own sake, some emphasis has been placed on the role they played in the social and economic development of the area in which they served.

Steamboats on Okanagan Lake

Sicamous departs from Okanagan Landing during World War I Photo courtesy Kelowna Museum 34 STEAMBOATS ON OKANAGAN LAKE The Importance of Water Travel Lakes, rivers, and oceans have been important for thousands of years. People have used waterways as a means of exploration and transportation. Exploration opened up new lands. Often, new settlements were built near waterways. Once people settled in new areas, they needed a way to get supplies in and trade goods out. This need for transportation was true on Okanagan Lake in the late 1800s. There were not many white people in the Okanagan Valley at that time because there was not an efficient transportation system in place. But as more commercial boats travelled on Okanagan Lake, more people settled on the lake’s shore. Water transportation helped to settle the Okanagan Valley. Dawn of the Steamboats The S.S. Aberdeen and the S.S. Okanagan were the first Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) sternwheelers on Okanagan Lake. S.S. stands for steamship. The CPR sternwheelers used steam power to drive the large paddlewheels at the back, or stern, of the boats. These boats were also called paddlewheelers because of the large paddlewheels. The sternwheelers were used to transport people, food, supplies, tools, clothes, and mail. They also carried horses, cattle, and 35 machinery. They were a very important means of transportation in the Okanagan Valley. The CPR built the Aberdeen and the Okanagan because there was a need for regular transportation from Okanagan Landing, which was at the end of the Shuswap & Okanagan Railway line, to Penticton at the south end of Okanagan Lake. -
