Sidsel Knutsen

This Norwegian-flagged tanker was taking on cargo in Sarnia's Chemical Valley. Strangely, our tour guide could tell us nothing about this ship.

Well, maybe not so strangely. My sister and I were carrying the 2009 and 2010 editions of Know Your Ships and found nothing about her in either book, which suggests she's an uncommon ship on the Seaway. Nonetheless, the Knutsen has a claim to Great Lakes fame: The Detroit-based mail boat J.W. Westcott II was attempting to deliver a river pilot to this ship when the Westcott sank in October of 2001. While no one blames Knutsen for the incident, you might suppose a tour guide would be aware of it.

=====================

I gotta say the Yahoo Maps' choice to call this location "Old Towne Port Huron" is pretty annoying. Evidently Ontario doesn't count.
