they're lucky to hav. i came up with an idea for our school. we would put a donation box in the office and bring it around to classrooms. i also said the we should do some fundraisers to raise money. our school alone made 900 something dollars. not bad for a kid in a sling

Do you know the Tsunami? One of my family members survived that. I won't mention what relation. It was so sad. We thought they had died.

But technically, if you examine edward9139's posting asking who was the largest, he did not specify during the time the Edmund Fitzgerald was cruising. I answered the question assuming he wanted to know for all time. I know the Paul R. Tregurtha's keel did not get laid until 4 years after the Edmund Fitzgerald sank. So I guess I win on a technicality ..... at least this time.


You're right

duz anyone know what was the largest?


According to my internet research, the largest merchant vessel on the Great Lakes is the 1,013 foot long, 105 foot wide, S. S. Paul R. Tregurtha. Prior to 1990, this ship was named S. S. William J. De Lancy.

For more information including pictures, click here.


The DeLancey wasn't yet around at the time of Fitzgerald's sinking, though. The S/S prefix doesn't really apply, either, 'cause the ship's driven by diesels. I'm sorry...I'm gettin' picky.

DeLancey/Tregurtha, like many Great Lakes freighters, does have a limited number of passenger cabins. Tregurtha is said to be quice nice, and the food is reportedly superb.

I'm somehow related to the former Chief Engineer of the former DeLancey.


Gosh LeoPlumtree, I have to be more carefull with my postings when you are around .

But technically, if you examine edward9139's posting asking who was the largest, he did not specify during the time the Edmund Fitzgerald was cruising. I answered the question assuming he wanted to know for all time. I know the Paul R. Tregurtha's keel did not get laid until 4 years after the Edmund Fitzgerald sank. So I guess I win on a technicality ..... at least this time.

But you did get me on the S.S. (steamship) designator error.

Yes it does state that. I guess sometimes there are exceptions to the rule. Like the saying goes, don't judge a book by it's cover.
