Yes, Lower Lakes could go after the Sarah Spencer, especially if the Maumee doesn't pass its 5-year. Personally, I think they'd try very hard to get the American Fortitude instead and transfer a lot of Maumee's work to the Manistee. Just a thot.

With so many Canadian's going to scrap I just don't get why then
does Lower Lakes not want to buy her? She's Canadian and also
a tug/barge self-unloader like McKee Sons and carries about the
same cargoes as the McKee Sons. Also, since she's Canadian,
there shouldn't be any issues with the Jones Act. Just a thought.

Why has she been in layup for so long? Are there issues with the hull or the tug or just lack of cargoes?
