First of all, as regards the ham radio world: it will be, in absolute terms, the first radio "activation" of the vessel. Secondly, we must also consider that the history of Williamsburg and what it represents, particularly in the U.S., will allow us to create an event that, properly managed by the communication point of view,could have considerable resonance in environments outside the amateur radio . In the next few pages we retrace the milestones in the history of Williamsburg, to better understand its importance.

That year the Ontario, SimCoe & Huron Union Railway built the first of two wooden grain elevators that would stand in the harbour where ships from ChiCago Could unload their Cargo of grain. That first elevator was relatively small and is thought to have been destroyed by fire. The railway’s suCCessor, The Northern Railway, would build the muCh larger landmark seCond wooden elevator in 1870. In addition to ship-to-shore transfers of grain, lumbering around Georgian Bay was a huge industry given the massive stands of virgin timber that Covered the land and the resulting log booms for the sawmills oCCupied muCh space in Collingwood harbour. The waters of the bay were teeming with 1 of 16 fish Creating the need for a Collingwood-based fishing fleet. All of these various enterprises involved the use of wooden boats and it was natural that the Craft of wooden boat building would be Carried on in Collingwood. Long before the Collingwood Shipyard of the 20th Century existed or had even been thought of, vast numbers of fishing boats, yachts, sChooners, sCows, lumber barges and the tugs to tow them were all needed for the 19th Century CommerCe on Georgian Bay and several family surnames—Watts, Doherty and Morrill in partiCular—were prominent in Collingwood wooden boat building, the Watts family having arrived in 1850 when the place was known as the Hen & ChiCkens Harbour and the townsite was a “dismal swamp”.
