MV REDHEAD DETOUR PASSAGE

[Denny]

Thanks Matt as always for your work, help and contributions as far as the Foreign Vessels list that you put together and provide everyday here on the boatnerd website as it provides great and excellent information as far as tracking the Salt Water Vessels and Ships. In response to Guest’s question further down “I don’t understand your post as it is anchored up and near Drummond Island, Michigan.” I am fully and well aware of that and that wasn’t my question of where they were located at? My question originally was “The date in October that they entered into the Seaway?” In checking out the Mariatown Vessel Passages by our great volunteer and contributor Ron Beaupre, he lists the Redhead as being at Mariatown on October 13 just after midnight then. So, the point is and that helped to answer my question of what date they entered the Seaway? I assume then it was October 12th. Again, it wasn’t the location of the Redhead I was looking for just the date they entered the Seaway was all I was looking for and wanted out of this. Thanks again for any help or information anyone may have on this.

If you go to the menu at the top of the main website, Boatnerd.com. Click on Vessel Locations and then 2025 Foreign Vessels on the Lakes. That passage will show you the locations of all the salties on the Lakes.

In viewing the Pirt Reports for October 13, it would appear that the Redhead was at Mariatown in Ontario just after midnight on October 13. So, it appears that she may have departed Montreal on or about October 12 and entered the Seaway then. Thanks for any information on this.

? I don't understand your post. It's still at anchor near Drummond Island.

As per what Great Laker says, indeed they are anchored and awaiting the Rodopi to depart from the Export Dock. You will see this happen sometimes like this where one salty has to anchor and wait for a clear dock at the Export Dock before being permitted and allowed to dock there. Speaking of them, I have a question I’d like to address but not sure if this is the correct way and forum to do it? Anyway, does anyone know the date that they entered the Seaway for the Soo? I know it was sometime in the past week or so and I don’t recall when it was now? I’ve been trying to track this stuff as best as I can this fall season but it’s not been easy especially now with the Fall Grain Rush picking up. Thanks in advance for any information on this.

Per AIS she is headed to the Export Dock in Sault Ste Marie (SSM) Ont. She will have to wait till the Rodopi leaves.

Does anyone have info on why this salty is still at anchor in the Detour Passage? Waiting on pilot boat or mechanical issues perhaps?
