Sad day for the Callaway...her fate is yet unknown, but likely, eventually the Port Colborne, Ontario for scrapping. For now, she makes her way to long term storage in Escanaba.
I went out the back door of the (most excellent) Escanaba Public Library yesterday and came upon the Cason J Callaway. Although I keep a casual eye on ships which pass our home in the U.P., I had never heard of the Cason J Callaway and took to RU-vid to learn about it. Thanks for posting this extremely informative video, Chad!
I would love to poke around in some of these older ships. See all the equipment and so forth. Would be really neat to take a trip on one to see how they operate.
Sad to see the old classics fade away, especially the AAA class. We are in Pt Colborne monthly and I will absolutely hate to see this boat meet her demise there. Tecumseh was dragged into the breaking slip there today. 😞
