René Beauchamp 55 YEARS of SEAWAY SALTIES René Beauchamp 55 YEARS of SEAWAY SALTIES 1959 to 2013 compiled by René Beauchamp Updated in January 2014 List of ocean-going freighters which transited the St.Lawrence Seaway from 1959 to 2013, spanning 55 years. Because of lack of information for the very early years of the Seaway, this index does not claim to be a complete accurate list of vessels, but is believed however to be almost one hundred percent accurate. Canallers and other inland vessels sold abroad and reflagged in one of the Great Lakes ports before their departure for overseas are included. The details in this book update the ones which appeared in my publications Seaway Ocean Vessels and Seaway Ships published between 1983 and 2013. All the vessels listed are general cargos ships including heavy-lift vessels and ro-ro ships, also bulk carriers, supply ships and tankers. Spelling of names: Several vessels listed were known under a variation of their name, particularly the Soviet ships. See a partial list at the end of this document. Doubtful visitors: Because no official records exist from the St.Lawrence Seaway Authority for the very early years of the Seaway, it must be emphasized that for a very few ships listed in this book, it was impossible to verify if they actually transited the waterway despite reports they might have transited. Ships in that category include the FANNY SCARLETT and a handful of others. Details : Name of vessel, first year of transit in brackets, gross tonnage, flag, year built, and class of ship [if any]. The tankers are identified with the letter t. The T2s were tankers. Explanations: First year of transit: The year the ship transited the Seaway for the first time under her current name. It is indicated by the two last figures of a year. Examples: 65=1965, 98=1998, 11=2011, etc. Gross tonnage: The gross tonnage the ship had when she transited for the first time. This figure was altered in subsequent trips for several vessels. For shelter deck vessels, the CSD tonnage which is greater than the OSD tonnage has been used. The gross tonnage is broadly, the capacity in cubic feet of the spaces within the hull, and of the enclosed spaces above the deck available for cargo, stores, fuel, passengers and crew, with certain exceptions, divided by 100. Thus 100 cubic feet of capacity is equivalent to 1 gross ton. Flag: The flag which the vessel was flying on her first trip. On subsequent trips, several vessels were reflagged without changing the name. Year built: Year built according to Lloyd’s Register of Shipping or Lloyd’s Shipping Index. Class of ships and abbreviations: 36L C4 B26 Empire C1 Fdm Freedom C2 Fdm II Freedom Mark II C3 Fds Friendship 1 Fort SD14 Ftn Fortune SF Santa Fe GL German Liberty T2 HF Hispania Freedom Vic Victory Lib Liberty Vn Varna Park Wm Wismar The 36Ls and German Liberties were built in Germany. The B26s in England. The C1s, C2s, C3s, C4, Liberties, T2s and Victories in USA. The Empires were not standard vessels like the other types. They were vessels of various dimensions mostly built in England and vessels seized by England during World War II . The Freedoms were built in Japan, Singapore and Taiwan. The Freedoms Mark II, Friendships and Fortunes were built in Japan and the Forts and Parks, in Canada. The Hispania Freedoms and Santa Fes were Spanish-built and the SD14s in England, Greece, Brazil and Argentina. The Varnas were produced in Bulgaria and the Wismars in East Germany. Actually, the word Varna is not the official term for this type of vessels but so many of those ships built at Varna, visited Great Lakes ports that the term Varna has stuck to them. The same can be said for the Wismars built at Wismar, East Germany.

We had a fantastic visit to the clipper ship “The City of Adelaide” with a very enjoyable lunch overlooking the water in Port Adelaide. If you missed it, you missed a great afternoon. Check out the pictures in this newsletter. We had a lovely party at Marty’s house for Australia Day. Ray Winterfield brought his guitar and we had a sing -a-long. We shared good food and fun. Another “no cost” function to members. We, again, had a really memorable Coral Sea celebration. This is so important to our association and the other associations which help us remember the connection with Australia and America. My only wish is that more of our members would take part and share this auspicious occasion with us. Check the newsletter pictures. We have said “Good-bye” to Nancy and Bill Schaff as they have moved to Hawaii. They always came to functions, gave good support for ideas and helped when needed. We will miss them but wish them all the best. Dr. Lage is still on her travels back and forth across the US. From the reports I have heard, she is enjoying herself very much.

  • Appendix a Apollo 15: “The Problem We Brought Back from the Moon”
    Appendix A Apollo 15: “The Problem We Brought Back From the Moon” Postal Covers Carried on Apollo 151 Among the best known collectables from the Apollo Era are the covers flown onboard the Apollo 15 mission in 1971, mainly because of what the mission’s Lunar Module Pilot, Jim Irwin, called “the problem we brought back from the Moon.” [1] The crew of Apollo 15 carried out one of the most complete scientific explorations of the Moon and accomplished several firsts, including the first lunar roving vehicle that was operated on the Moon to extend the range of exploration. Some 81 kilograms (180 pounds) of lunar surface samples were returned for anal- ysis, and a battery of very productive lunar surface and orbital experiments were conducted, including the first EVA in deep space. [2] Yet the Apollo 15 crew are best remembered for carrying envelopes to the Moon, and the mission is remem- bered for the “great postal caper.” [3] As noted in Chapter 7, Apollo 15 was not the first mission to carry covers. Dozens were carried on each flight from Apollo 11 onwards (see Table 1 for the complete list) and, as Apollo 15 Commander Dave Scott recalled in his book, the whole business had probably been building since Mercury, through Gemini and into Apollo. [4] People had a fascination with objects that had been carried into space, and that became more and more popular – and valuable – as the programs progressed. Right from the start of the Mercury program, each astronaut had been allowed to carry a certain number of personal items onboard, with NASA’s permission, in 1 A first version of this material was issued as Apollo 15 Cover Scandal in Orbit No.
