Scrapping the ship ALGOMA TRANSPORT, Funnels removed, 2024

[@papabits5721]

My older brother was the 3rd engineer on this ship when it was brand new. They had a window cut in front of one the props so they could look at the effects of cavitation, they used a strobe light to stop action the prop. High tech stuff back then.

NO that's so sad!!!😭

😭 I don't know what possessed me to watch this 😢

Given the events of the last few days, maybe the Michipicoten will be joining the ships here.

[@johnsoper5675]

I was thinking the same thing, that the Michipicoten will be scrapped as well.

@@johnsoper5675 I have heard that the diving team that looked at the cracked hull says that the Michipicoten is reparable, but it's really dependent on if Rand will put the money into repairing it. Also there's the Cuyahoga which is also in limbo, so far it seems Rand hasn't decided what to do with the Cuyahoga.

god i hope not

[@TOTALCAMARO]

And who knows about the Cuyahoga? I hope not for her too. I hate seeing the Transport going. Unfortunately hauling salt did her in.

[@RightInNiagara]

Yes, I agree - Cuyahoga from last year, and now suddenly, Michipicoten too: what will happen with them? Tough decision to make - to fix it or to scrap it...

🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

[@johnsoper5675]

It looks like the hull will be all that remains to be scrapped, when they move her into the scrap slip
