During the winter of 1994-95, the ELTON HOYT II spent part of the winter in drydock at Erie Marine Enterprises for her 5-year survey. During that time, the vessel was repainted by EME painter Eric Guerrein (now owner of Lakeshore Towing). Each vessel painted took about two weeks to complete.

really excellent postings the last week or 10 days! At a slow time when many have given up you still find things to photograph and write about. Also, a very nice mix of past and present. Well done!
