HMCS Stadacona
HMCS ''Stadacona'' was a commissioned patrol boat of the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) that served in the First World War and postwar until 1920. Stadacona is a historic name associated with Canada, the voyages Jacques Cartier, the colony of Samuel de Champlain, and Quebec City.
==Origins==
The vessel was built by Crescent Shipyard, Elizabeth, New Jersey as the American steam yacht ''Columbia'', the second yacht of that name built for J. Harvey Ladew of New York, and modeled on the United States Coast Survey steamer ''Pathfinder that had been built in the same yard.〔There has been confusion between the two yachts. The fist of 1894 was built by Cramp Shipbuilding and later commissioned by the United States Navy in 1898 as —''before'' the second was completed at Crescent. The Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships gives an erroneous 1898 build date along with an 11 April 1898 commissioning date for the Cramp Shipbuilding ''Columbia'' when contemporary accounts clearly show the second yacht is ''still being built'' in 1899. To complicate matters further, the article here uses the commissioning date to distinguish the vessel while the data shows construction starting ''five years''.〕 Possible conversion into a naval auxiliary was a part of the design with coal fired triple expansion steam engines, capable of a guaranteed allowing for steaming range of and a sail plan allowing even longer ranges.
She was acquired by the RCN in 1915. Prior to the arrival of the French, the location that would become Quebec was the home of a small Iroquois village called "Stadacona", after which the ship is named.
