Re: Steamer Collingwood Sarnia acciden
The Collingwood holed herself 17 June 1957 on the dock at Detroit after unloading newsprint for the Detroit Free Press and News. While leaving the dock it then backed into the Cornell in heavy fog. The Cornell suffered no significant damage. The same fog resulted in a glancing blow, with no significant damage, between the Paterson and Edward W. Mudge near Marysville that day.

Does anyone know of an incident concerning CSL's Collingwood at Sarnia, when she was intentionally beached to keep her from sinking after a collision? From a video posted on the Archives of Ontario website it looks like this possibly took place in 1957 by the link description.
This ship went to scrap in 1968 so this had to occur at some time before.
