PS Waubuno

The ''Waubuno'' was a side-wheel paddle steamer that conveyed passengers and freight between Collingwood and Parry Sound in the 1860s and 1870s.〔(Georgian Bay South Channel - Area Shipwrecks, accessed August 31, 2009 )〕 It sank with all hands during a gale on the night of November 22, 1879, though the exact cause of its sinking is unknown.
The ''Waubuno'' was built by Melancthon Simpson at Port Robinson in 1865 for J. & W. Beatty and Company,〔Hayes, Adrian. Parry Sound: Gateway to Northern Ontario. p.5 Natural Heritage Books. 2005. 1-89621-991-8〕 and was later owned by the Georgian Bay Transportation Company.〔(Maritime History of the Great Lakes: Shipwrecks: WAUBUNO, accessed August 31, 2009 )〕 Her main purpose was to run passengers and freight from the Northern Railway's railhead at Collingwood to places further north, including Parry Sound and Thunder Bay.〔 Its name was derived from Algonquin and means "Black Magician"〔(Transcripts: Sinking of the Waubuno, accessed August 31, 2009 )〕 or "Sorcerer".
==Last voyage==
The ship was loaded down with supplies destined for Parry Sound, and was likely the last voyage the ship could make before ice made future trips impossible until the following Spring.〔 The ship, Captained by George Plumpton Burkitt, had been trying to leave the southern Georgian Bay town of Collingingwood since November 18, 1879, but snow and fierce winds had kept the ship in port.
The ship set in during a break in the weather on November 21 with 24 crew and passengers.〔(Divers' Nook - The Waubuno, accessed August 31, 2009 )〕 The ship was last spotted afloat by the lighthouse keeper at Christian Island who noted that the ship was faring well.〔(The Waubuno's Battle -- Elise Dallaire, accessed August 31, 2009 )〕 The Steamer ''Magnettawan'' left later on the same morning as the ''Waubuno'' and after sheltering overnight at the Christian Island, arrived at Parry Sound November 24, never having spotted the other ship.
