The ship is 215ft in length. The ''Norisle'' was built at the Collingwood shipyards in 1946—the first steamship built in Canada after the end of World War II. Her engines were actually designed and built for a Royal Canadian Navy corvette, however because of the end of the war, they were put into the ''Norisle'' instead. They are now the only remaining engines of their type in existence today. She sailed until the year 1974, when she and her sistership, the ''Norgoma'', were replaced by the much larger and more modern which could accommodate a much larger number of automobiles, and passengers (but no livestock).
