Dode (steamboat)
''Dode'' was a steamboat that ran on Hood Canal and Puget Sound from 1898 to 1900.
== Construction==
''Dode'' was originally the schooner ''William J. Bryant''. Prior to construction as the ''Dode'', the ''Bryant'' had been one of a flotilla of Gold Rush ships sent to Alaska. Most of the vessels were older, some had been pulled off mud flats and given a paint job, which led a newspaper of the time to call them “floating coffins.”
In 1898, following return from Alaska, the ''Bryant'' was rebuilt into a propeller steamer for Capt. Dan Troutman's Hood Canal service. The rebuilt vessel was named ''Dode'' after his nickname for his wife, Dora Wells Troutman, who was also a licensed captain.〔 The Troutmans owned a farm at the small Hood Canal town of Lilliwaup.〔Newell and Williamson, ''Pacific Steamships'', at 98 and 103/〕 Captain Dan Troutman is reported to have mysteriously disappeared in 1899, forcing Dora Troutman to take over full management the ''Dode.''〔Faber, ''Steamer's Wake'', at 90, 106-107, 134, and 136.〕
