Who really sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald?
>>546010899I was up there in October. 10 foot waves and it wasn't even storming.
>>546010899I did
>>546010899Piss poor engineers
>>546011033Nah I opened the screen door to fish

Gales of November dunnit
>>546011722>>546010967Gets pretty windy here this time of year. I live between Lake Ontario and eerie, on either lake front it's windy as fuck, can't imagine what lake superior gets like.
>>546011823You must be in the Falls or close. I lived there till I was 9.Superior is a whole other beast. During storm season waves can hit 30 feet tall.
>>546010899I'm guessing it was a design issue. What a stupid boat.

>>546010899The three sisters
>>546011823Thorold/Welland scum.
>>546012424It was eighteen years old when it sunk. Seems like a design issue would have shown up before then.
>>546010899It had some structural flaws or something in order to save money on the construction of it.It was also a freak storm on that November day in 1975... near-hurricane conditions they say. very unusual for a lake.
>>546013026Thorold and welland are like night and day ...
>>546012424bongs really just have no clueIt was a freighter for carrying iron across the great lakes. Almost as big as the titanic, everyone living around the great lakes loved this ship.

>>546010899Uh, retard, have you ever seen a Great Lakes storm? I assume you're from central india.
>>546012514This anon gets it
>>546010899You know who
>>546010899Old boats rust. Broke in half, most likely.
>>546013312Still a stupid fucking boat. No wonder it sank. The fucking state of it. Was it designed by a woman?
>>546014245Mr. Naval engineer over here talking shit lol
>>546014229There are freighters older than it that are still in use on the Lakes today. Freshwater is far less harsh on ships than seawater is.
>>546014245bongs is mad! this was during an era when 1 state in america was producing more steel than your entire sad country.now what, you have 1 single steel mill left and its getting shut down because even the chinese didn't want to buy it?
>>546010899>Who really sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald?The sailors for not securing the hold.
>>546010899Gordon Lightfoot
Any maritime marine anons ITT? I've always wanted to work on a ship. It seems so comfy especially now that Starlink provides internet the entire journey.
>>546015312There are some in the other thread.
>>546015479Sorry the gif got fucked. Thanks.
>>546010899>who SUNK itwhy does no one say SANK anymore? it sinks, it sank, it has sunk. why is everyone a fucking idiot?
>>546014935I can here to comment on your stupid woman boat. The steel industry has nothing to do with it.
>>546015594as opposed to the boats that constantly dump rapeniggers onto your island
>>546015102she can lay anchor on my face any time.
>>546015686Sadly, even niggers manage to sail boats that don't sink. Unlike you.
