Comox (steamboat)
''Comox'' was a steamship built in 1891 in British Columbia which served until 1920. ''Comox'' was the first steel ship built on the west coast north of San Francisco.
==Design and construction==
''Comox'' was built in 1891. The components of the vessel were manufactured in Paisley, Scotland and then shipped to Vancouver, British Columbia where they were assembled by Henry Darling. When complete, Comox was 101 feet long, with a beam of 18 feet and 5-foot depth of hold. Overall size of the vessel was 101 gross tons. The hull was steel, and ''Comox'' was the first steel ship built on the west coast north of San Francisco.〔〔Newell, ed., ''McCurdy Marine History'', at page 156.〕 As built, ''Comox'' could accommodate almost 200 passengers.〔〔
The power plant was a double-expansion steam engine, manufactured by Bow McLachlan & Co., Glasgow, Scotland. The engines had a high pressure cylinder 12 inches in diameter, low pressure of 24-inch diameter, and a stoke of 18 inches, and drove the ship at 11 miles per hour. Coal consumption was 4.5 tons in 24 hours.〔(The New Mills' List, “Registered Canadian Steamships 1817-1930 over 75 feet” ) (accessed 06-17-11).〕〔(Wright, ed., ''Lewis and Dryden Marine History'', at page 391. )〕
''Comox'' had an auxiliary sailing rig as a sloop.〔
