North Pacific (sidewheeler) : ウィキペディア英語版
North Pacific (sidewheeler)

''North Pacific'' was an early steamboat operating in Puget Sound, on the Columbia River, and in British Columbia and Alaska. The vessel's nickname was "the White Schooner" which was not based on the vessel's rig, but rather on speed, as "to schoon" in nautical parlance originally meant to go fast.〔
==Design and construction==
''North Pacific'' was built in San Francisco, California for E.A. and L.M. Starr. The Starrs were pioneer businessmen in Portland, Oregon. The Starrs had been unsuccessfully trying to compete with Finch and Wright, first with the sidewheeler ''Alida'' and then with the small steamer ''Isabel''. The Starrs brought ''North Pacific'' to Puget Sound in 1871 to compete with the firm of D.B. Finch and Capt. Tom Wright (1828–1906). Finch and Wright had run the pioneer sidewheeler ''Eliza Anderson'' on the Sound, and had recently replaced the ''Anderson'' with the faster sidewheeler ''Olympia'' (later known as the ''Princess Louise'').
