Layups

Sam Laud is laid up at the G&W dock in Cleveland

Any number of factors can determine where a boat lays-up, including but not limited to: Needed work and the port's ability to perform that work, dockage/space availability and costs, storage loads, etc

How does a company choose layup sites?

There seems to be a small amount of ships wintering in Sarnia compared to other years, would the large amount of work on the Michipicoten this year make ships with minor repairs go to other ports?

I have seen 12+ ships in Sarnia, this year only 8, with most ships layed up.

Maumee is in layup at Cleveland upriver near the steel mills. Mckee Sons most likely will layup at Cleveland as she had a load of ore bound for this port several days ago. American Mariner, Sam Laud, Kaye E. Barker and CSL Niagara are in layup at Toledo though not posted on the Boatnerd site yet.Also Mississagi is doing the short haul salt runs between Windsor and Detroit.

Someone is doing a fantastic jobs keeping the Winter layup sheet in good order, but I was wondering about a few layups. The Maumee, Kaministiqua and the Lewis Kuber. Are they at the wall yet? I'm sure the Maumee has been laid up quite a while now. Any comments?
