Cocopah II (Sternwheeler)
''Cocopah'' II, was a stern-wheel paddle-steamer, the tenth steamboat on the Colorado River, first put on the river in 1867.〔( Richard E. Lingenfelter, Steamboats on the Colorado River, 1852–1916, University of Arizona Press, Tucson, 1978 )〕
The ''Cocopah'' II was built at Arizona City in March 1867 for the George A. Johnson & Company as the replacement for the original ''Cocopah'' that had been taken of the river that year, had its engine and boiler removed and used as housing for workmen at the port and ship building settlement at Port Isabel, Sonora. The ''Cocopah'' II at 231 tons was 3 tons lighter, at 147.5 feet seven and a half feet longer and at 28 feet a foot narrower than the original ''Cocopah''. It was commanded by Captain Issac Polhamus, senior steamboat Captain of the company.
With the ''Colorado'' II, ''Mohave'', and ''Nina Tilden'', ''Cocopah'' II completed George Alonzo Johnson's fleet of four steamers and six barges that would operate from the late 1860s to early 1870s. The ''Cocopah'' II was finally retired in 1879 after the Southern Pacific Railroad bridged the river at Fort Yuma and purchased the steamboat company. Cocopah II was dismantled in 1881.〔
