It’s been 50 years since a freighter sank in the Great Lakes, but in the summer of 2024, one ship came dangerously close. On June 8, 2024, the Michipicoten was carrying a load of iron ore across Lake Superior when the crew heard a loud bang. The ship was taking on water. Kent Knechtel was the Michipicoten’s second engineer, whose life was changed by his experience that day. | Great Lakes Now
