St. Marys Challenger, last port of call
#2
Wow. That is so cool. Built before WW1. I bet she's seen an awful lot in her day. Sounds like she was a lake boat though, so not as dangerous as the Atlantic where there were not only natural threats to deal with. Not that Superior is easy or anything.

She would have been a contemporary of the steam powered (but still equipped with sail) collier that my Great Grandfather captained at the turn of the last century.

Thanks for the links!
