Steamboat Willie Riverboat

The Steamboat Willie Riverboat is the riverboat from Mickey Mouse's debut cartoon captained by Pete, who had Mickey working as his cabin boy. According to Dave Smith, the boat officially has no name, with the short's title (a reference to the Buster Keaton film, Steamboat Bill, Jr., itself a take on the song "Steamboat Bill") instead being the name of the character Mickey plays in the short. Despite this, however, the boat has been named Steamboat Willie (or just simply "Willie") in some official Disney media, particularly where Mickey himself is not going by that name.
