The owners of the steamboat SPLASH (formerly SHAWNEE PRINCESS) contacted me looking for historical info on the boat for their new web site. While I do have some brief info, I don't have a lot. I will list what I have below. If anyone here can add to this, please do so!

SHAWNEE PRINCESS

Built by Tucker Marine, Cincinnati, 1970, hull # 70-221.
Originally operated on the Providence Canal and Maumee River near Toledo, Ohio.
