SS Columbia (1920)
SS ''Columbia'' was a Canadian Pacific Railway passenger and freight steam tug built in 1920. She provided a winter service on Lower Arrow Lake in British Columbia, Canada from 1921 to 1948.〔Turner, Robert D. (1998). ''Sternwheelers and Steam Tugs''. Winlaw, British Columbia: Sono Nis Press.〕
==Construction==
''Columbia'' was built at Nakusp, British Columbia to replace the tugs SS ''Whatshan'' and the earlier ''Columbia'' of 1896. She was the first boat designed specially for winter service on the Lower Arrow Lake, which was required because SS ''Minto'' was restricted to service north of Burton, British Columbia.〔Parent, Rosemarie. "The SS Columbia." Arrow Lakes Historical Society. N.p., n.d. Web. 01 Aug. 2015.〕 ''Columbia'' had a small, enclosed passenger cabin and a dining room. She was an attractive vessel and was licensed to carry 34 passengers. Her machinery had come from the ''Columbia'' of 1896 and allowed a speed of 11 miles per hour.〔
By September 1920, ''Columbia'' was completed just enough to get through the Burton narrows before the water dropped too low in the winter. She was launched from Nakusp on November 4 and finishing touches were added at West Robson and she was completed in January 1921.〔
