Winter Layup begins

The John J. Boland arrived this morning signaling the start of winter layup as it headed for Fraser Shipyard where it will wait out the rest of winter.

Seven more Lakers will be arriving over the next two weeks to spend the winter.  The Soo Locks will close on Jan. 15 leaving the remaining boats on Lake Superior to find shelter until Spring.  Don't worry, cold weather will be arriving next week.
