''Princess Norah'' was a steamship which operated in British Columbia and southeastern Alaska from 1929 to 1964. From 1955 to 1958, this ship was called ''Queen of the North''. From 1958 to 1964, the ship was called ''Canadian Prince.'' This ship should not be confused with the later similarly named motor ferry MV ''Queen of the North''. ==Design and construction== ''Princess Norah'' was built in 1929 at the Fairfields shipyard in Govan, Scotland.〔(The New Mills' List, “Registered Canadian Steamships 1817-1930 over 75 feet” ) (accessed 06-17-11).〕〔 The ship was designed for service to the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island.〔Turner, ''Pacific Princesses'', at pages 140 and 144-46.〕 The ship was 250 feet long, with a beam of 48 feet and 23-foot depth of hold.〔〔Turner, ''Pacific Princesses'', at page 237.〕 The overall size of the ship was 2,731 gross tons.〔 The powerplant, which drove a single propeller, was a triple expansion steam engine, with cylinder diameters ranging from high pressure to low, of 24, 38 and double low pressure cylinders, of 45 inches diameter each. Engine stroke was 36 inches.〔 ''Norah'' was built with a bow rudder to assist in navigating in the narrow winding channels of the British Columbia coast.〔 The ship had a capacity for 700 day passengers. There were an additional 179 berths in 61 staterooms for overnight travellers.〔 The official Canadian registry number was 154848.〔
