Information from the Detroit Marine Historian; a pipe broke in the engine room of the Badger on January 29, 1987. It says that the Ludington fire department pumped nearly 200,000 gallons of water from the Badger. https://images.maritimehistoryofthegrea ... /page/6?n=

Are there any photos or other information available about the Badger's near capsizing and the subsequent operation to right her?
