SS Keno, Museum ship at Yukon River waterfront, Canada
The SS Keno paddle steamer stands in a dry dock along the Yukon River, featuring three decks with freight storage, passenger rooms, and executive accommodations.
Built in 1922 by British Yukon Navigation Company, this vessel transported silver, zinc, and lead ore from Mayo district mines until its retirement in 1951.
The SS Keno represents river navigation heritage as the last paddle steamer to travel downstream to Dawson City under its own power in 1960.
Visitors can explore the vessel through guided tours, with tickets available at the Dawson City Information Centre during the summer season.
The vessel operated with a minimal draft of two to three feet, allowing navigation through shallow waters while carrying up to 78 passengers.
