Saginaw River Passages - April 15th

After unloading during the day Thursday, the Olive L. Moore - Lewis J. Kuber were outbound from the Lafarge Stone Dock in Saginaw during the early evening. The pair made it out into the Saginaw Bay and dropped their hook to wait on weather before continuing to the lake. They are still there Friday evening. Also waiting out in the bay near the Moore-Kuber is the tug Zeus and her barge. Still at the Essroc dock Friday night is the Stephen B. Roman, who arrived early Thursday morning to unload. The tug Karen Andrie and barge Endeavour were able to make the Saginaw River on Friday morning, calling on the Bit-Mat dock in Bay City to unload. They were still there Friday night. Winds on the Saginaw Bay have averaged over 30 knots, out of the northeast, most of the day, with gusts in the 40's.
