Samson V is a wooden, steam-powered, sternwheel snagpuller which has been converted into a Maritime Museum.  She is the sole survivor of the once numerous Fraser River paddlewheelers.  Onboard you are welcome to tour the galley, mess, cabins and engine area, all restored to their original condition.  From the Museum’s tour guides, the photography display panels, and the interpretive brochures, you’ll get a sense of what life was like on a working riverboat.
