Algoma Sault

Algoma Sault, which entered service in 2018, is the third freighter Algoma Central named after Sault Sainte Marie.[1] Like Algosoo before her, she is a self-unloading bulk carrier, built for carrying cargoes like ore, grain, or coal, on the North American Great Lakes.[2] She is the seventh vessel of the Equinox class, and like her sister ships she was built in China.[3]
