48 years ago on November 10, 1975 - The Conversation between the Coast Guard and the Arthur M. Anderson after they lost sight of the Edmund Fitzgerald when it Sank on Lake Superior. They went back out into the storm and found the lifeboats and debris field from the Edmund Fitzgerald. Winds that night were sustained over 75mph with Gusts up to 100mph measured on the Wilfred Sykes. Rest In Peace to the 29 men that never came home. I was surprised at how nearly half of them were from Ohio. | Lance

The official Coast Guard report cited massive hatchway failure and rogue waves-but the families always believed the full truth was never told. Had we been there, we would have been honored to fight tirelessly for answers, accountability and justice. Since 1952, we’ve stood with maritime families across the Gulf Coast.

November 10, 1975 twenty-nine souls were lost when the Edmund Fitzgerald met strong November gale winds and took on water after a hatch blew on Lake Superior. She was hauling 26,116 long tons of taconite pellets, made of processed iron ore, heated and rolled into marble-size balls. She embarked on her final voyage from Superior, Wisconsin, near Duluth, on the afternoon of November 9, 1975.

The exact cause of the sinking has never been determined. Theories include rogue waves, overloading, a stress fracture of the hull, faulty cargo hatches, or hitting a shoal. The truth, unfortunately, will probably never be known. This disaster was forever immortalized by Canadian folk singer Gordon Lightfoot in his iconic song, “T

On a stormy November 10, 1975—exactly 50 years ago—the mighty 729-foot SS Edmund Fitzgerald battled Lake Superior’s fury. Launched in 1958 as the Great Lakes’ largest ore carrier, she vanished without a distress call. Massive waves or a hidden shoal split her in two at 530 feet deep. All 29 crew perished. Hatch failure likely doomed her. Gordon Lightfoot’s haunting ballad immortalized the “Witch of November.” #EdmundFitzgerald | VÉHICULE
