Algoma does not own the Valor. Rand does. Michipicoten is done due to needing more work to satisfy Transport Canada. Gott, with her speed and boom isn't going anywhere. And why is the Gott a one trick pony? Are you confusing her with the Speer with her shuttle boom? The Speer is being repowered this winter so she is safe.

Well with the announcements of closures of the steel plants and coal docks, what ships do you think will be done and scrapped?

I think we will see the Blough, Calloway, and Anderson go from GLC.

Algoma will probably scrap the Valor, Leitch, and Compass will go.

Rand will probably give up the Saginaw and Pierson. Michipocoten was repaired.

I don't see any changes to Interlake, but the Cort and Gott being one trick pony's will probably send the first thousand footers to the scrap yard. McCarthy is supposedly in bad shape too.
