Steamship

The steamboat is a large ship used for transporting goods between various locations around the world.

History
After Tenzin told Avatar Korra that her airbending training at the Southern Water Tribe compound would have to wait due to his responsibilities back in Republic City, Korra took it upon herself to travel to Republic City via stowing away on this ship.

Design
The steamboat is a very large metallic structure with large paddlewheels located on either side. It is propelled through the water by utilizing steam power to turn the paddlewheels.

The hull and smokestacks on the ship are red in color, and are elaborately decorated with gold trimmings.

Trivia

 * While Korra and Naga are stowed away in the ship's cargo hold, a Satomobile can be seen in the cargo hold with them. This is the first time a Satomobile is seen in the series.
