Since posting these images I have done a little research and found out that this sturdy looking boat has the eloquent name CN No.6 Tug. There is an interesting write-up about the tugboat here.

We actually traveled to Penticton from Vancouver to go rock climbing at the Skaha Bluffs. Unfortunately, we hit the rainiest week of the year. The Okanagan area is high mountain desert and typically gets low rainfall. We did manage a few days of climbing and fortunately, it is also wine country.
