Two more down, one to go.

The Clyde S VanEnkevort/Erie Trader and the Indiana Harbor both left Bay Ship this afternoon.

Now the Walter J McCarthy is the lone remaining vessel (that is going to leave...)

Late Tuesday evening, the barge Erie Trader and tug Clyde Vanenkvort was towed out of the graving dock and were tied up on the face dock. The tow was completed by Kubasic Marine tugs.
Wednesday morning, the tug Clyde Vanenkvort was taking on fuel.

The John G Munson departed Bay Ship today, heading out into Green Bay and north.

The Cason J Callaway was also moved to Berth 9 I believe, leaving the Walter J McCarthy and Indiana Harbor on Berth 15.

Clyde S VanEnkevort/Erie Trader and still in the graving dock.

Not much ice at all, certainly not in the the ship canal.

Today the Joyce L VanEnkevort/Great Lakes Trader departed via the ship canal.

Also, in the graving dock the Clyde S VanEnkevort/Eric Trader have been given a new paint job to match the rest of the fleet - Red with cream colored trim.

The Edwin H Gott departed Bay Ship mid morning on Wednesday 22nd. She headed out of Sturgeon Bay into Green Bay and North to the lake.

It looks like several others are ballasting and getting ready to go.

The Mesabi Miner, Joseph L Block and Wilfred Sykes all look like they are ready to move.

Bay Ship activity, it appears the Joe Block is in ballast, exhaust is coming from the Sykes stack also exhaust is coming from the Indiana Harbor’s port stack. The barge Erie Trader is getting a new hull color going from black to brown.
