| has gloss | eng: The MS Norgoma was a Canadian package freighter and passenger ferry, that could also transport automobiles on a limited basis. Originally constructed as a steam powered ship, the SS Norgoma primarily sailed the route from her home port of Owen Sound to Sault Ste. Marie, providing a five day round trip, once a week, serving isolated communities along the north shore of Lake Huron. This route was previously served by the SS Manitoulin, retired in 1949. After conversion to a Motor Ship, the Norgoma was transferred to the popular Manitoulin Island, ferry route between Tobermory and South Baymouth along with her sister ship the SS Norisle, replacing the smaller ferry, MS Normac, on that route. |
