Hamonic was a passenger vessel designed for service on the Great Lakes.

[1][2] She was launched in 1909, and served until she burned, in a catastrophic fire, at Sarnia, Ontario, on July 17, 1945.

[1][2] However, unlike the catastrophic fire that struck her sister ship, Noronic, in 1949, where 119 passengers died, all of Hamonic's passengers and crew survived.

Elmer Kleinsmith, a crane operator, operating a crane designed to load and unload coal, was near enough to use his crane's bucket, to rescue the ship's complement.

[3][4] Other members of her fleet included Huronic, Doric, and Ionic.
