Description
The sky was getting ready for Halloween and there on the horizon was a ship sailing along. I didn't expect the ship but there it was and it was a great surprise. Originally named the Elton Hoyt 2nd she sailed the Great Lakes. At the end of the 2000-2001 shipping season the Elton Hoyt 2nd entered lay-up at Superior, Wi. This would begin a multi-year lay-up as the demand for steel weakened and left the Hoyt 2nd as excess capacity. On April 10, 2003 it was announced that the Hoyt had been sold to the Canadian shipping company, Lower Lakes Towing. Her registration was changed to Canada and renamed the Michipicoten. Here it is on Lake Superior working 15 years later.
