Former (and perhaps still current) names were Turquoise T and Topaz T.

IMO numbers are listed in the links that pop up when you hover over the ship names.

Yes McKeil Marine did indeed purchase tankers but I don’t know or have any further information on them at this time. Perhaps someone else may have more information on this that they can provide and share.

Hasn't McKeil Marine also recently purchased two tankers for Great Lakes/Seaway service?
If so, does anyone know the names of the vessels?
Thanks!

According to a photo on Algoma’s social media, she has already been renamed Algoterra, but still shows Louise K on AIS.

Just checked her out today and according to Marine Traffic they have her listed as Louise K of Tuvalu registration. Also and yes she will be renamed in all likelihood once she arrives in Halifax with her new name expected to be Algoterra. Hope that this has helped.

I assume she will be renamed and reflagged once she arrives in Halifax?
