QUEEN of
the WEST
The QUEEN OF THE WEST
riverboat was
built in 1995 at Nichols Bros. Boat Builders for the
American West Steamboat Company for overnight river
cruising on the Columbia & Snake Rivers. She is
currently owned and operated by American Cruise Lines.
The ship has 67 cabins spread over 4 decks.
QUEEN OF THE WEST is designed to hull dimensions and
paddlewheel configuration of the sternwheeler Portland,
which was built in 1947 at Nichols Marine Iron Works,
Portland, Oregon. The steam whistles come from an
unknown steamer of the 1800s. The helm wheel was the
original early-1900s wheel from the Seattle fireboat
Duwamish.
When launched, QUEEN OF THE WEST was the first
paddle wheeler to sail the Columbia River in 85 years.
This primarily wood
model of the QUEEN
OF THE WEST
is built per commission only. We require only a small
deposit (not full amount, not even half) to start the
process. The
remaining balance won't be due until the boat is
completed. Please
send us an email for a quote for a size of your choice.
