Historical Layups: PRESQUE ISLE

Another frequent winter visitor to Erie, from the time of its build until the mid-1980s, and now, once again a regular winter visitor, was the 1000-foot tug/barge PRESQUE ISLE. In these photos from the mid-1980s, the tug returned to Erie from its five year survey at Port Weller Dry Docks.
