CSL and Algoma appear to have differing maintenance / upgrade schemes. Seems that CSL puts more into big projects and less into season-to-season work, while Algoma's policy is kind of the reverse. If that's the case then the Algolake is probably in better shape at age 33 than the McGiffin / Griffith / Desmerais / Parisean were at the time of their forebody replacements. I believe Algoma carried out some fairly extensive cargo hold steel work on the Algolake last winter.
