Wait! Is there a tree-lined snow-covered canal exiting there? A dry dock drifted full of snow and hidden by pines?
Nope, it’s a cottage like no or few others, launched in Toledo in 1923 as John W. Boardman. Click on that first link to see interior shots of the cottage on the St. Marys River just north of Detour Passage.
Hundreds of miles to the south, Benson Ford serves as a similar cottage on an Erie island.
Less than a mile away is John Sherwin, fairly new as lakers go, and yet laid up for some years now.

Huron Service used to be Eric Candies. Look at the lines of her hull and house. Do they
look like these on Na Hoku? No surprise . . . Na Hoku used to be Chris Candies. At least a half dozen other ex-Candies boats work as regulars in the sixth boro.
Now look at the barge on Na Hoku‘s hip. DBL 85 used to be
Freedom. Stuff doesn’t change that much; it just gets renamed.
And this just in from Birk, another fleet sib, Sandmaster, (ex-Ben Candies). You recently saw this angle wet here on tugster.
Cheers.
