    Great Lakes Maritime Institute

    JANUARY - FEBRUARY, 1978 Volume XXVII; Number 1 GREAT LAKES MARITIME INSTITUTE DOSSIN GREAT LAKES MUSEUM Belle Isle, Detroit, Michigan 48207 JAN/FEB, 1978 Page 2 MEMBERSHIP NOTES Welcome to 1978! A brand new year, a brand new slate, and a brand new outlook. It is going to be difficult to keep up with the pace set in 1977, but the continued success of the Institute demands that we not just meet, but surpass last year. At the close of the year our member­ ship had grown to approaching 1,50C. pretty good for an organization that had 97 members in 1959...but this year we’ll shoot for 1,600. It’ll take a lot of work, and you’ll have to help, but you always have, so we should make it. Telescope production last year produced a total of 244 pages, and in addition to that we produced the FITZGERALD book with 60 pages. For the uninitiated, this means your Editor typed, then Varityped 608 pages. This much production takes a lot of time, but we are going to do something about it, and we’ll have an announcement to make perhaps as early as the next issue. Not only will what we have planned result in far less work to getting Telescope out, but it will produce a far better product. Yes, 1977 was a good year...but 1978 looks better. MEETING NOTICES Regular membership meetings are scheduled for January 27, March 31, and May 19 (early to avoid Memorial Day weekend). All meetings will be at the Dossin Museum at 8:00 PM.

    The Mythologizing of the Great Lakes Whaleback

    VERNACULAR IN CURVES: THE MYTHOLOGIZING OF THE GREAT LAKES WHALEBACK by Joseph Thaddeus Lengieza April, 2016 Director of Thesis: Dr. Bradley Rodgers Major Department: Maritime Studies, History The “whaleback” type of bulk commodity freighter, indigenous to the Great Lakes of North America at the end of the nineteenth century, has engendered much notice for its novel appearance; however, this appearance masks the essential vernacularity of the vessel. Comparative disposition analysis reveals that whalebacks experienced longevity comparable to contemporary Great Lakes freighter of similar construction material and size, implying that popular narrative overstates whaleback abnormality. Market and social forces which contributed to the rise and fall of the whaleback type are explored.

    MOON RIVER Grades SUBWATERSHED Land: a Water: a Wetland: —

    MOON RIVER Grades SUBWATERSHED Land: A Water: A Wetland: — The Moon River subwatershed is 71,434 hectares in area and is located in the western portion of The District Municipality of Muskoka, flowing from Lake Muskoka at Bala in the Township of Muskoka Lakes westerly through both the Moon and Musquash Index Map Rivers in the Township of Georgian Bay and finally emptying into Georgian Bay. Less that 5% of the subwatershed is developed with 49% of the land through which the river flows being Crown land. There are no major urban areas within the subwatershed and shoreline residential development comprises most of the land use. 17% of the subwatershed is protected through provincial parks, crown nature reserves, or local land trusts. There are 37 lakes in the subwatershed that are 8 hectares or greater. The subwatershed is divided into two distinct reaches: the Moon River and Musquash River branches. There are 2 dams at Bala with power generation at the Burgess Dam site. On the Moon River there is one dam with no power generation. The river is approximately 35 kilometers in length. The Musquash River is approximately 30 kilometers in length and there are two dams with power generation: Big Eddy and Ragged Rapids. There are automatic water level gauges downstream from the Big Eddy Dam and at both dams in Bala. There are also flow gauges on both the Moon and Musquash Rivers and one located upstream from the point at which the rivers separate. This report card describes the health of the land, water and wetlands of the Moon River subwatershed and is part of the larger report The 2010 Muskoka Watershed Report Card that is posted on the MWC website www.muskokaheritage.org/watershed.
