The first sailing ship known on the lake was the Surprise which was owned by Captain Hedditch and operated on the lake during the 1870s. This was followed by the Eureka and the Nun. These ships traded up and down the lake carting passengers, sheep, timber, and flax to and from the farms and small settlements around the lake.
