Skuzzy was a sternwheeler built by Canadian Pacific Railway contractor Andrew Onderdonk at Spuzzum, British Columbia, Canada, and launched on the Fraser River on May 4, 1882.

Andrew Onderdonk held the contract to build the 29+1⁄2 miles (47.5 km) section of railway from Boston Bar to Lytton, worth $2,573,640.

Because transporting materials along the Cariboo Road took too long to reach the site, Andrew Onderdonk built the Skuzzy and used the Fraser River to his advantage.

Captain Insley was able to guide the Skuzzy upstream through the whirlpools and rapids and under the Alexandra Bridge[dubious – discuss] which had been built by the Royal Engineers in 1863, but when Insley got the Skuzzy to the entrance of the Hell's Gate Canyon he could take it no further: the Fraser was at its highest point in forty years, and passage was impossible.
