The Iroquois was a passenger steamer constructed in 1902 in Wiarton, Ontario. It had a wooden hull and two decks. The vessel was built by Gregory Fitchner using the bottom of another ship called the John J. Long.
With dimensions of 104.4 feet in length, 20 feet in beam, and 8.7 feet in depth, the Iroquois had a gross tonnage of 240 and a net tonnage of 153.
The propulsion system of the Iroquois consisted of a single screw, meaning it was driven by a propeller. Unfortunately, on October 24, 1908, the ship met its demise in McBean Channel in Georgian Bay, Lake Huron. It struck a rock, caught fire, and eventually sank. However, there were no casualties reported in the incident.
At the time of its sinking, the Iroquois was owned by T. C. Simms from Little Current, Ontario.
