The Navigator will be be done with in 2013. As as being a straight back being the reason for Propector being finished is unfounded...Upper Lakes is always trying to keep it's flat back fleet going...Reason is Upper Lakes lost Harve St Pierre-Sorel run and she needs far too much steel work to continue

I have heard that the Propector is going to be scrapped. Why? Her exact sister (salty sisters, then both got same forebody replacement at same time), the Canadian Navigator is running. Is the only reason the Prospector is done is that she wasn't converted to a self-unloader like the Navigator?
