Another view of the Steelhead.  They opened the boom but the Simcoe was ordered back to the base until later in the day.


Ontario Power Generation charters this tug and barge, along with the Steelhead, to open the ice booms that are placed in the St Lawrence river.


Steelhead proceeding to open the boom.


Looks like a praying mantis.


The "Steelhead" was a fish tug built and owned by the Kolbes of Port Dover.  Fished Erie,Huron and Superior.

Sold to different people after that.  

Thanks to Jim MacDonald for this info.


Steelhead looks like a mighty icebreaker.

The Steelhead was used along with a smaller tug and barge to open the ice boom in Prescott.  The tug stayed at the CG base all winter so she would have easier access to the boom.

This will become a huge trend and prices will only rise as the supply of lawn tugs is dramatically low.


Steelhead is part of the contract work to remove the ice boom.
