I was thinking the same thing.  Could definitely use a little TLC.

This is her last season as rumor goes.
Two new ships of similar size are being built for Algoma as we speak!

Very cool! The stone will be ballast for the recently reopened W&LE Clairton Branch.

I know this isn't Boatnerd.com, but it was last reported in Toledo in Jan/2012 ..... must've towed it over to Huron for layup since then.

Gone, leveled a few years back to make room for a development, which as of yet has not been built.

The Cornelius and the John J. Boland were laid up in Huron in January of 2015.  The Boland was fitted out and is now in service.
