Algorail

Algorail was built in 1968, is 640 feet long and flies the Canadian flag

The Algorail has a self-unloader on her deck and is outfitted with both bow and stern thrusters. She has 17 hatches that open into 4 cargo holds. Algoma Central formerly operated railroads, from which the boat received her name. She carries a wide variety of cargos. Her smaller size enables her to visit many smaller ports around the Great Lakes. She has been here 18 times since 1996; her last visit coming in October, 2008. (as of January, 2011)
