Hello -- it is that time of year! Time for salt deliveries in the Upper Peninsula. Does anyone have any information on the arrival time of the salt boat in Hancock? Will the cargo be shared with Sault Ste Marie as it has been in past years? Any updates or information would be appreciated. Regards!
I believe the first of them, the Algoma Innovator, is inbound from the north end of the canal right now (Sunday morning 9-19-21). I believe it delivered a partial load in Duluth before coming to Hancock.
Saturday evening (9-25-21), Algoma Conveyor is off the North Entry showing a destination of Hancock. Looks like she is stopped out in the lake at the moment. AIS past track doesn't seem to indicate a split load, at least not that I can see.
