Steamship Canopic
So similar in plan to the steamship Republic is the Canopic —another recent product of Harland & Wolff—that she might be called her sister vessel, although her dimensions are slightly different, being: Length, 594 feet; beam, 59 feet; molded depth, 35 feet, 8 inches; tonnage, 12,097. The Canopic's triple expansion engines develop a splendid speed.
The regularity of her voyages is a matter of pride with her engineering force. Her popularity as a steady, roomy, and clean ship has advertised her good qualities among a steadily growing multitude of friends.
Steel construction was employed throughout, and her lines and plan are entirely modern in every respect. Passenger accommodations of the most comfortable type are located on three decks — the main, upper, and saloon—and the promenade deck contain special cabins, centrally located and furnished with all the accessories to a luxurious voyage.
This type of twin-screw steamer seems admirably adapted for a most comfortable and pleasant ocean passage—despite wind and wave—as the ship's bilge keels and massive displacement make her steady in any sea-way.
Curator’s Note
For over 25 years, I've been dedicated to a unique mission: tracking down, curating, preserving, scanning, and transcribing historical materials. These materials, carefully researched, organized, and enriched with context, live on here at the GG Archives. Each passenger list isn't just posted — it's a testament to our commitment to helping you see the people and stories behind the names.
It hasn't always been easy. In the early years, I wasn't sure the site would survive, and I often paid the hosting bills out of my own pocket. But I never built this site for the money — I built it because I love history and believe it's worth preserving. It's a labor of love that I've dedicated myself to, and I'm committed to keeping it going.
If you've found something here that helped your research, sparked a family story, or just made you smile, I'd love to hear about it. Your experiences and stories are the real reward for me. And if you'd like to help keep this labor of love going, there's a "Contribute to the Website" link tucked away on our About page.
📜 History is worth keeping. Thanks for visiting and keeping it alive with me.
