PV Klondike Spirit (Dawson City, Canada)

[Roderick Smith]

There was a 2005 post to Paddleducks when the vessel was commissioned:

This is paddle driven, not fake.

Dawson City is also the home of preserved SWPS Keno: kept out of water.

and lots more by Googling.

SWPS Klondike, preserved at Whitehorse (also Yukon, Canada) is probably better known.

Enclosed: a photo of PV Klondike Spirit by my long-standing railway-enthusiast friend, and RNV contributor, Murray Breach.
