Tankers

Unread post by Guest »

Hello everyone.

I noticed looking on marine traffic late tonight that there are quite a few oil/chemical tankers on Lake Ontario and the seaway that aren’t part of the Algoma fleet or even Canadian flagged vessels. Does it seem like there are more than usual sailing the lakes/seaway right now? Are they chartered for the Canadian companies or are they operating on their own? What would they be shipping?

Thanks for any insight you have to offer
