LAKES CONTENDER TO MOVE SUNDAY

After weather delays, the moves of the tug KEN BOOTHE SR. and barge LAKES CONTENDER will happen Sunday morning.

BOOTHE SR. will be moved to the east side of Donjon in order to allow the LAKES CONTENDER to move to the West Slip. BOOTHE SR. will then be returned to the West Slip and the drydock gate will be floated back into place in order to pump out the drydock and set the blocks for next week's arrival of the CALUMET.

The following vessels, in addition to the BOOTHE/LAKES CONTENDER, will be spending the winter in Erie:

  • PRESQUE ISLE
  • EDGAR B. SPEER
  • CALUMET
  • MANITOWOC
  • ROBERT S. PIERSON

CALUMET, MANITOWOC and PIERSON are all due to be drydocked here.
