SALE $5,870.' An earlier Goderich, a steamer owned by the Canada Steamship Lines, is still surviving as the storage barge, Lionel Parsons, in Goderich Harbour. (photo by Tom Manse) Goderich has been sold to Soo River Comiany BY SKIP GRAHAM The Great Lakes bulk carrier that has been called GODERICH since 1964 has been sold by Upper Lakes Shipping. Some time this spring she will -be renamed "Soo River Trader". The ship has been an occasional visitor to the port to take on salt. She last loaded here in December 1978. The vessel took on six such cargoes that year destined for Thunder Bay. A total of 53,010 tons headed west in her holds. On another occasion Goderich opened the shipping season at her namesake port. In 1974 Capt. A. R. Munday, a native of. Goderich brought the ship into the harbour as first of the year. Capt. Munday commands • another Upper Lakes shipping vessel this season. Despite the age of the vessel, the Goderich will not be entering retirement. Seventy-four years of service is long, even by t Lakes standards, b this veteran is rega ded as having a few more years of profitable service by her new owners the Soo River Company. This ship was' built by the Detroit Shipbuilding Company it Wyandotte, Michigan in 1906. This firm ceased building vessels in 1920 but their products continue to sail. Goderich measured 550 feet in overall length. This was large in her early years but is dwarfed by the 1,000• foot giants that patrol our Upper Lakes today. Still, she handles a payload of 11,700 tons. Ore is n� longer the predominant cargo put aboard.' Grain usually fills her holds today as she 'loads frequently at Thunder Bay or Toledo for Sarnia, Port Colborne and Toronto. This vessel . , , as originally called Samel Mather. It was the thi such ship by this name and since then three other vessels have honored the GODERICH S, NAL -STAR, WI Town.shiia deal§ with tenders • At an April 21 meeting the tender of .(,;aures Adams was accepted by Goderich Township council to load and haul n 18,000 yards of gravel and 4,000 yards of top soil this late Cleveland in- dustrialist. In 1925 she became the Pathfinder for her long-time owners the Pickands, Mather Co.,. They sold her to Upper Lakes Shipping in 1964 and the latter firm honored a long association with our port by applying the name Goderich. During the 150th Anniversary celebrations in 1977, the Goderich carried the "Jubilee, - 3" crest on her bow as she travelled throughout the Seaway. We may see her again in port under the new 'name as the Soo River Company ships often come to the local grain elevator. We are reminded -that another ship that once was called Goderich reposes in the harbour: The grain storage barge Lionel Parsons sailed'as Goderich for Canada Steamship Lines` from 1927 to 1963. She later became the, Agawa. for Algoma Central and has been a port fixture since 1968, year. The lowest of five tenders, Adams will load and haul 14,000 yards of , pit. run gravel at $.62 a yard. He will also load and haul 1,000 yards of top soil at $.62 a yard and load and haul 2,000 yards of crushed gravel at $.62a yard.
