"The boiler's been a problem ever since she was laid.
We tried to do anything to fix it, but the owner just didn't care,
and now look what happened..."

Whaleback Excursion Liner Marco Polo
A fine steamer with an unusual hull. She was built for luxury voyages around the Great Lakes, taking wealthy passengers around The Great Lakes. Unfortunately a faulty boiler caused a massive disaster in 1897, while docked in Skanee.
