Good Morning #Canada
I have some local #History for you today. OTD in 1861, the Emily May steamship was launched from the shipyard at #BelleEwart. She was a side-wheeler, measuring 47m ) in length by 7.3 in width, capable of sustained speeds of 35 km/h. The Emily May steamed around Lake Simcoe for two decades, connecting the railway station at Belle Ewart to towns around the lake. Sadly in 1882 she caught fire while anchored in Belle Ewart.
