I don't know why they make these newer boats,without the pilot house/ bridge in the bow section??. All lakers used to have the helm in the bow,for a good reason!! Go back to building lake freighters the correct way!!

That's Shameful!! They used to scrap boats that were in nicer condition. Those dummies have bounced that ship off of everything they come across!! I can remember when great lake ships looked nice! Now they don't even paint them. Faded, rusted, smashed up Shit! Canadnadia Steam Ship Co. Shame on you! The U.S. Coast Gaurd oughta,condem that P.O.S. and they can use it as a breakwall Shows how badly things are in this crappy economy. Image is everything, and I wouldn't do business with a company that had equipment that looked like that!

Idk... look find to me, I would use spray foam to shape the hull better but that's it

Did they put any fenders out when they tied up? If not I can see why it looks like a total wreck!

Gees you can see the ribs! I wouldn’t be caught dead on this tub!

Can’t believe how battered the hull looks!

Is it a "Steamship"?

That’s an embarrassment for the steamship industry

Of all of the ships I have seen traversing the Detroit river up and down bound , this Atlantic Huron is the worse condition I have ever seen. It looks like she was made of aluminum looking at her sides. No I wouldn’t want to sail on this ship.

Good one skipper

Marking that prop with a bouy would be the right thing to do !

A classic Salty.

Looks empty.

Here is a good one for you. Check out mouse island. It is only about 200 meters from Catabuwa. You can launch from East Harbor State Park. Head west for a few minutes and you will see this small island. The President after Grant, Hayes owned it. They built two cabins in 1890’s. The fire places are still there. I saw an old photo of the Hayes family standing in the cabin in front of the fireplace. I took a selfie in the exact spot that the family was standing. Not only that but the island itself is beautiful. Really odd eroding. The ferry line is close to the island so every seven minutes or so the wake from the ferries hits the island. It makes this odd, artificial erosion pattern on the northwest shoreline.

The name Gardno comes up in Google as an area off the Baltic coast, Poland. Love the Welland Canal. I wish Lock 7 webcam would go live again. Thanks for your excellent videos that let me re-live my time there.

SHIPS LIKE THIS IS MADE TO TAKE A BIT OF A BEATING AN STILL STEAMING ALONG

Business !

Very FASCINATING ! THIS IS WHAT GOES ON IN OUR STATE ! OHIO !

Looooove WATCHING THESE SHIPS !

They will run that thing till it splits open and sinks.

Battered all over... looks awefull...

That ship looks knackered ..! 😂😂😂😂

Welding new steel plate over it and go sailing with that old ship, spend not to much money on this floating scrapper.

The majority of the damage looks like it's from coming in contact with a lot of different things,, but not all of it. Some of those panels that are sucked in between the ribs is not from accidents but it's from heat over time. I used to know what it was called, but it is essentially the effect of temperature change pulling the metal in and out throughout the years! Although that ship looks like it has the thinnest metal on the the hull that I've ever seen?😢😢😢

Everybody knows what they're doing?? Says somebody on the ship with all the dents in it?!😮😂😂😂😂😊

That ship is a disgracful hulk.

Looks like its one step away from being a movie prop for waterworld.

Seems like the old Lakers hold up over time better then the ship built in the 1970's Also hi from Lockport, Ny

Shit box

gBe safe and good job

"Welcome to Port...." Port what? Couldn't understand what you said...

bumper stickers on your Porche... kinda like tattoos on a woman...

Beat to Crap. Looks almost bad enough to not be Sea Worthy. Not sure if it's reflection on Captains or Company or Both. With things like Michipicoton (Spelling)crack, this kind of damage makes you wonder.

Whats going on with the Canadian shipping companies? A lot of the ships look to be in bad repair.

Did notice the timber rub rail in the lock is down to the steel mounts so pretty useless and can cause damage. Spent 18 months in Sarnia On. Just down from Lake Huron working on the construction of the CN Rail tunnel under the St Clair River back in 94/95. Made friends with lots of the locals and in the summer time went sailing and swimming on the Lake. My apartment was right on the river bank so great views of the Lakers passing by, even witnessed the first ship after the winter freeze, tree in the mast and Capt wearing a topper. Thanks for post and jogging a few memories.

I thought the port side was bad until I saw the starboard side. This ship is beat to death!

these boats are beat up and look dangerous.....

Hard working ship. I just subscribed.

You just haven't seen Earl Scheib work have you? Have that looking new in a day or so...

The prop looks tiny against the bulk of the ship

They've just repaired the lower hull at the bow

Built to the lowest specs and didn't kill very many people. Capitalism works!

Oh this lady is in need of some new skin and some tlc and face off😢

As far as I know CSL doesn't have a replacement for this ship coming so she may or may not be scrapped when her 5 year inspection comes up (not sure when that is?). If not then they'll most likely fix up the dents at that point since they're mostly cosmetic damage, no hurry. I hope she's got a few more years left personally! I'm a big fan of this design, with the sharp bow.

wow Atlantic Huron looks ready for the scrappers. Really beaten.

OMG she was built in 1979! By Great Lakes standards that is practically new!

Always sad to see them go

these ships still look modern and capable What gives??
