They did that in the Whats New Era, but not in the 70s and 80s, which is a shame.

Thais very a pretty decent episode. Dixie was fine but not given much time. The ghost was kinda lame. I enjoyed the showboat setting though. 6/10

There's two characters who I've seen before. Colonel Beaurigard was later reused in Boo Brothers and Sally looks like the lady in the Seattle Steamin' Demons episode.

I really liked it. I love that they used the Delta Queen. Scooby was so cute going after the ghosts.

It seems as if many older Hanna-Barbera series had steamboat plots. It happened in Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels, The Little Rascals cartoon spinoff, and at least two Scooby-Doo series.
Of all the steamboat plots Hanna-Barbera ever produced, I like "Cap'n Spanky's Showboat" from The Little Rascals cartoon spinoff the most. Though "Showboat Scooby" is pretty good, probably my second most favorite steamboat plot.
"Cap'n Spanky's Showboat" used the Mississippi Queen as the episode's ship, but I wonder if the owners of the real Mississippi Queen (which was launched in 1976) could have sued Hanna-Barbera productions for using the name, which was likely a violation of copyright infringement?

Probably not. It's not as if Mississippi Queen is trademarked, and many shows use similar names for their boats
