Saginaw River Passages - July 14th


Tall Ship Denis Sullivan at Wenonah Park, Downtown Bay City

The Indiana Harbor was inbound Wednesday morning calling on the Consumers Energy dock in Essexville to unload coal. She completed her unload Wednesday evening, backed out into the Saginaw Bay to turn and headed for the lake. Algoway was inbound Wednesday evening, passing Indiana Harbor near Lights 11 & 12, on her way upriver to unload at the Sargent dock in Zilwaukee. She was expected to be outbound on Thursday.

The tall ship fleet began to arrive in the Downtown Bay City Area on Wednesday, with Lynx and Denis Sullivan both tying up at the docks. Out in the Saginaw Bay were Bounty, Pride of Baltimore 2, and Europa, who were on the move toward the Saginaw River. The forecast of severe weather for this area played a part in the decision of some of the tall ship fleet to dock in Bay City early.
