Trois barges d’York, lac Swampy (Manitoba)

Description :
York boats were used by the Hudson's Bay Company to carry furs and trade goods along inland waterways. Based on an Orkney design, they were named after York Factory, the major transshipment point at the mouth of the Hayes River on Hudson Bay. /

La Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson utilisait des barges d’York pour transporter les fourrures et faire le commerce de marchandises sur les voies navigables de l’arrière-pays. Ces barges sont inspirées d’un modèle originaire des Orcades, en Écosse. Elles doivent leur nom à York Factory, le principal point de transbordement à l’embouchure de la rivière Hayes, dans la baie d’Hudson.
