Klahowya (sternwheeler)
''Klahowya'' was a sternwheel steamer that operated in British Columbia on the Columbia River from 1910 to 1915. The name "Klahowya" is the standard greeting in the Chinook Jargon.
==Design and construction==
''Klahowya'' was built at Golden, BC.''Klahowya'' 's engines came from ''Isabella McCormack'' which had been converted into a houseboat. ''Klahowya'' was built by Capt. Frank P. Armstrong (another source gives George Rury as the builder〔), with the capacity to carry 100 passengers. Armstrong built ''Klahowya'' in an unusual way. When the Columbia River was frozen, Armstrong built the vessel on a set of shipways constructed directly on the ice. When the boat was finished, Armstrong cut around the outline of the vessel in the ice, and the boat settled into the water.〔
Two sources state ''Klahowya'' was built for the Columbia River Lumber Company,〔〔 while another source states ''Klahowya'' was intended for the increasing tourist trade in the Golden region.〔Downs, Art, ''Paddlewheels on the Frontier -- The Story of British Columbia and Yukon Sternwheel Steamers'', at 112, Superior Publishing, Seattle WA 1972〕 Multiple use steamboats were common, and use for lumbering would not have been necessarily inconsistent with tourist applications.
