Yes, she did spend the Winter of 1964-65 at Sturgeon Bay being rebuilt, but she was towed from Fraser Shipyard to Sturgeon Bay on November 30, 1964.

Re: Ann Arbor #7 at Frasier picture
That is indeed the Joseph H. Frantz before rebuilding at Christy Corporation in Sturgeon Bay. She was towed down to Sturgeon Bay on November 30, 1964.
The Frantz re-entered service on July 20, 1965 after the $4-million self-unloader conversion and repower to diesel.

Someone posted this on facebook: "In the Yard - The History of Fraser Shipyards: 1890-2017", the vessels that wintered over 1964-1965 were as follows: A. T. Lawson, Ann Arbor No. 7, C. H. McCullough, Jr., D. M. Clemson (2), Thomas W. Lamont, Irving S. Olds, Enders M. Voorhees, Charles M. Schwab, The International, Clarence B. Randall (2), Ashland, William H. Donner, Reserve, Thomas E. Millsop (2), Charles S. Hebard, Edmund Fitzgerald, and A. E. Nettleton.
But I don't think it's any of those.
