SWPV Captain Sturt (Dreamworld, Qld, Australia)

This is/was a theme-park attraction.  As far as I can tell, propulsion was by the sternwheel; steering in the narrow waterway was by an underwater guide rail.
The boat ceased operating from Dec.12, and is only a static display.  That coincided with the removal of the authentic steam locos on the park railway, and replacing them with a steam-outline diesel.
