Warning: We found Canadian Marine Accident records for 5OE57755 (SHOWBOAT). This ship has been recorded in the Canadian Marine Occurrence database as having been in an incident. Below are the details of the Vessel, weather condition, damage incurred and other accident details such as the date:

On the evening of 23 August 1995, the twin-hulled "SHOWBOAT" departed the eastern end of Ontario Place with 39 persons aboard, 6 of whom were crew members. About 10 minutes later, both engines failed and the vessel started to list to starboard. While moving ahead at a slow speed, the "SHOWBOAT" struck a sea wall causing many of those on board to lose their footing. The vessel heeled to starboard, the starboard main deck edge became submerged, and all on board fell into the water. The vessel downflooded, sank and settled upright on the bottom in 1.8 metres of water. All on board were rescued and assisted to shore by the crew, the public and Ontario Place personnel. The Board determined that the uninspected "SHOWBOAT" was heavily laden, downflooding and slowly sinking before it struck the sea wall. There was no life-saving equipment on the vessel, but all on board were rescued promptly because the vessel sank close to shore in relatively shallow water. Contributing to the accident was the absence of clearly defined responsibility for the management of safety and for maintenance, the lack of guidance to the operators regarding the weight the vessel could carry safely, and the modification to the vessel's transom through which water downflooded.
