Chickama
II - 1942
Built in 1942
by the Purvis Company of Selkirk, the Chickama II operated as a passenger
and freight vessel on Play Green Lake. Every spring she travelled north to
Warren's Landing to make regular trips through the shallow rocky waters to
Norway house. She took the cargo from the S.S. Keenora who was unable to
navigate the waters of the smaller lake.
The
Chickama II was also used to push and pull barges with her 4 cylinder
Gardner diesel engine.
