July 14 is date for launch of century The launching y a ship in Collingwood always makes a big splash, but when Hull 227 hits the water this summer, it will create the biggest splash in the Collingwood Shipyard's 100-year history. The $40-million bulk carrier, which will measure a full 736 feet, three inches (224.5 meters) when complete, will be the largest ship ever built at the Shipyard. It is also the longest ship that the St. Lawrence Seaway can accommodate. Although conventional bulk carriers and self unloaders are characterized as "maximum Seaway size", Hull 227 is six feet three inches longer than usual. "This is the absolute maximum" says Joe Sheffer, assistant manager of Human Resources at the shipyard, Commissioned for Canada Steamship Lines, the extended "sulker", a design which may be converted to a self-unloader at a later date, has the capacity to carry an additional 300 tonnes of cargo. The timing of this launch is also special. When Hull 227 slides down the butterboards July 14, it will be the first and only ship to be launched in 1983, a particularly important year in the history of Collingwood. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Collingwood Shipyard and the 125th an- niversary of the Town of Collingwood. The launch will cap two special weeks of anniversary events.
