This is the ship as she approaches the Locks from the Lake Superior side.
The Tim S. Dool was built in 1967 at the Saint John Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company in St. John New Brunswick. She started life as the Senneville which is a town near Montreal. She was originally owned by the Mohawk Navigation Company. She was the second Great Lakes freighter with the pilothouse and machinery all aft.
She mostly carried grain. In 1980, she was bought by another company and in 1994, she was bought by the Algoma Central Company and renamed the Algoville.
In 2008, she was renamed the Tim S. Dool in honor of the company's former President.
