Port and vessel activity from March 16, 2023, unless stated otherwise. Please send future port reports to news@boatnerd.net.


St. Joseph – Benton Harbor, MI – Michael Moran
Our arrival this weekend, which was going to be a freshly repainted G.L. Ostrander/Integrity, was rescheduled due to strong river currents.
It’s hard to say exactly when our first boat of the season will be, but it could well be late next week. In the meantime, stay tuned here for the latest updates as I get them.

Lake Erie Ports – Bill Kloss
Algosea departed Imperial Oil in Nanticoke and has petroleum products for Sarnia, ON. That leaves Algoterra at Imperial Oil. Meanwhile in Cleveland Interlake’s Dorothy Ann/Pathfinder combo continues on the shuttles for Cliffs. Leaving layup in Cleveland was the Dirk S. VanEnkevort/Michigan Trader, bound for Toledo. CCGS Judy Lamarsh is making her way across Lake Erie for Port Colborne. CCGS Griffon is working on nav aids around Port Dover. New York/Double Skin 509A is unloading in Monroe, MI.
