The boat you are asking about was the Canadiana. The Canadiana and fleet mate Americana ran daily between Buffalo and the amusement park at Crystal Beach, Ontario from ~1910 until 1959 - 1960. I believe they used her for a short time on the Detroit River in the early 1960's. After sitting at Cleveland for a number of years, she was towed to Ramey's Bend where she was cut up. There are some pics here: http://www.olm1.com/~wny/buffalo/canadiana/can-pic.html http://www.pbase.com/kjosker/canadiana http://sscanadiana.org/ A Google Image search for "Canadiana" will produce more pics.
