Abandoned steamboats at Golden, BC ca 1926. Selkirk is clearly shown, a portion of a smaller unidentified vessel is visible on right

Thanks for your kind remarks re the above. My main interest is inland and coastal vessels. Many of these ended up simply abandoned like the photo I attach.

I also wrote Clallam which I see now could use some polish, as well as some illustrations. I recently added some images to Sechelt. I covered an early boiler explosion in Gazelle. You might want to look at Bonnington which also not a disaster, is the largest inland shipwreck in British Columbia (and probably the entire west coast of North America).Mtsmallwood (talk) 23:53, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
