The Twin Ports will see two boats arriving today to load taconite, including the Algolake, pictured here taking on a load of coal at Midwest Energy on April 2006. The self-unloading bulk carrier was built by Collingwood Shipyards, Collingwood, Ontario, and was launched for Algoma Central Corp., Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, on Oct. 29, 1976. The Algolake was the first Seaway-sized vessel of this type (all cabins aft) built for this fleet.
