Didn’t McKeil pick up grain cargoes?

Any identification of this tug on the St. Clair River just south of St. Clair? It is docked at a private residence, with a blocked view from M-29, and not on AIS.

Sharon M 1/Huron Spirit carried brine from Courtright to Little Current, a regular trip for the pair. Soo destination is probably to load at Algoma.

Will Tilden ore no longer be moved from the LS&I ore dock to Algoma? Sailing distance and fuel costs are substantially less using Marquette.

All the best in 2020 - Rod Burdick
