@Hanglands You may find more information on the web site the real muskoka experience. They have quite a lot of information about the history of the RMS Segwun, Wenonah II and the Wanda III. If you have never had a chance to go for a cruise I highly recommend it. I have been on the Segwun about 25 times and the Wenonah twice.

@bilgerat671 Interesting, thanks for the info.

@Hanglands The engines are fore-and-aft compounds built by "Doty" which *i believe* was based in Toronto, Canada. They're jet condensing, meaning a jet of water is sprayed into the exhaust stream, cooling the exhaust steam and collapsing it back into water, creating a vacuum. Judging from their size I'd say they're in the 150-200hp range EACH
