Selkirk - Marine Museum of Manitoba

Visitors may be surprised to see numerous large ships in the middle of a pleasant park as they drive through Selkirk. It is not the result of a tidal wave; it's the Marine Museum of Manitoba.

Several historic ships have been brought together in a park to form this interesting Marine Museum. The main attraction is an old steamship, the S.S. "Keenora", which operated cruises on Lake Winnipeg from 1923 to 1965. Other vessels on show are the icebreaker "C. G. S. Bradbury", the passenger and cargo carrying "Chickama", and an elderly fishing cutter, the "Lady Canadian".
