NIAGARA Drydocked at Cleveland

U.S. Brig NIAGARA was drydocked at Great Lakes Shipyard in Cleveland on Monday to repair wood rot in the bow of the Brig. The NIAGARA was placed onto the Shipyard's floating drydock, FAVORITE, on Monday afternoon and is expected to be there through the end of the month.
