That though would've been the third John J. Boland which now sails today as the Saginaw! The current John J. Boland which sailed as the Charles E. Wilson until January 2000 "Never visited Port Gypsum and the East Tawas gypsum dock areas!"

It was a challenge finding the gypsum dock, but well worth it!

I was just looking at the AIS map and I see the Boland went into Port Gypsum. I know last year the Laud went in there several times for Waukegan, but the first I've seen the Boland go in there
