BOWEN ISLAND STEAMSHIP DAYS: JULY 10 - 12
Steamship Days is proud to announce that the last surviving steam powered vessel on the West Coast will be part of the wooden boat show at the USSC and Bowen Marina. Built 93 years ago at the False Creek shipyard the SS Master was originally intended for use as a WW 1 mine sweeper.
At 85 feet long with a bottom that extends 19.5 feet down the only moorage for her on Bowen is at the very end of the USSC marina on E dock.
The SS Master Society, the current owners spend thousands of hours each year to maintain her in seaworthy condition.
She will be open for tours on the Saturday & Sunday for Steamship Days (July 11 & 12th). Donations are gratefully accepted.
