The US Coast Guard is working to free the Algoma Conveyor, from the waters of Green Bay. The vessel ran aground last Thursday, about five miles from the mouth of the Fox River. The 740-foot ship was hauling salt to the Port of Green Bay lost propulsion and moved outside the navigational channel. Initial reports noted that the ship’s load would need to be removed to lighten it and re-float it. All 18 members of the crew remain on board and are uninjured.
