Obviously a typo. Another abbreviation for "Steamer" commonly seen on the Lakes is "Str." A lower case "t" must have been mistaken for an "i".

"Sir"? I'm pretty sure you mean "stmr" which is short for "steamer". The Sykes is still steam powered. I believe this same ssue was covered in a previous post.

When did the Wilfred Sykes become Sir Wilfred Sykes? My uncle sailed on this boat for many years and I've always known it as the Wilfred Sykes.
