    in those days they had stress fracture problems on those big long boats. on the lakes and at sea. that's what I think happened IMO. they are land locked to. to big big to fit thru the locks so they spend their entire service life on the lakes. the fitz ran head long into a 3 headed monster

    I can play the song on guitar. Gordon Lightfoot is from back in my day.

    What astounds me is I've got a LOT of sea time. I've never been able to figure out the Great Lakes. They're just weird.

    Hats off to all those merchant marines. They went down with the ship. Hardcore.

    Are you kidding? The only people that like to listen to me sing are babies. Never figured that one out. For some reason I can put them to sleep in minutes. Have NO idea how that works. I actually sound like Clint Eastwood when I talk except I have a drawl.

    Is that tidbit supposed to make me not want to hear? It's even more intriguing. Fail!

    Absolutely! Love this song, and I swear if you asked me to name one "haunting" song, it would be this one.

    Yes, and looking at the picture with my untrained eye, it actually looks like the boat already has structural problems in the middle. If anyone's ever read the book "Blink" by Malcolm Gladwell, he presents a theory that sometimes a subconscious 2-second impression can be more accurate than a full blown inspection. If only the inspector had read the book...
