This was a picture post card, I had one, can't remember where I bought it, Washington or Oregon I believe.

This picture was as well- I remember the post cards being in the store that my aunt worked at in the late '70's.

What does this contraption do? It kinda looks like a boat, but seems to be sitting on dry land.

It was easier to move on skids with logs under it to roll it?

I'm guessing a steam engine aka donkey engine ??

I think you're both right. It's probably an engine used to run different equipment, and this is how they pull it along. I love the old school ingenuity. Seeing how they made stuff work with what they had is amazing.
