GRANDE MARINER, AGAWA CANYON, W.N. TWOLAN Due

Cruise ship GRANDE MARINER will finally open the five-year old cruise boat terminal at the foot of Holland Street at 1300 tomorrow. The terminal was built with the intention of landing visits from the largest of the Great Lakes cruise ships, such as the c. COLUMBUS; however to date that has not happened and the c. COLUMBUS will not be returning to the Great Lakes in the forseeable future, due to low water levels. Therefore, the GRANDE MARINER's four stops here in 2008 will likely be the only four vessel calls on this terminal in 2008. Makes you wonder why they built that place to begin with.

Algoma's AGAWA CANYON, with a split load of stone from Bruce Mines and Thessalon, Ontario, will be arriving in Erie at 0300 Tuesday.

W. N. TWOLAN, and barge McALLISTER 132, departed Thunder Bay, Ontario at 2000 tonight bound for Erie, where they're scheduled to arrive shortly after midnight on Thursday. At this time I'm not sure what the pair is carrying.
