I wouldn't call her a hard luck boat. She has served almost 50 years and was a trend setter when it came to the footers that followed a few years later. Most ships have some sort of casualty or dark spot on their records. A lot litter the bottom because of it, but the Blough has served her time. There was no way for her to be preserved or real reason for it anyways. The Anderson, Alpena, Jackson, Oberstar, Calloway, Clarke, Cayuga, and any other fore enders will meet the same end sometime in the near future too.
